About this episode
In this episode, Linda talks about Black towns and communities across the US that were destroyed by racial violence when Black prosperity challenged racist beliefs. This episode covers many instances of the destruction of Black communities, including "Black Wall Street" in Tulsa, Oklahoma, and the once prosperous Black community of Rosewood, Florida. Linda discusses the reasons why these stories are often not told in history classes, and the lessons that can be learned when we confront the difficult truths of the past.
