t's Juneteenth, A Great Day to Free Our Minds About Where We Are and Where We're Headed As A Nation

 

The Don of Hate, his campaign faltering after several major setbacks, this weekend will keep the faith with the angry, disheartened remnants of the confederacy yearning for a return to white-supremacist "values-based" leadership.

Trump will stage a political/ideological/racial homecoming at a much-hyped, coronavirus-be damned rally in Tulsa, Okla., tomorrow.

On June 1, 1921 and lasting almost a month, white mobs relentlessly attacked Greenwood, a well-to-do black section of Tulsa, after rumors swirled through the city that a black man had sexually assaulted a white woman in an elevator.

The unconfirmed report triggered an explosion of violence by whites. More than 300 blacks were killed and more than 30 blocks of  their homes, churches and businesses were reduced to ashes with incendiary devices dropped from airplanes. No one was ever arrested, tried or convicted of any crimes,  and blacks who were  buried in mass graves have not yet been identified.

Trump is hoping that his rally in Tulsa will be the dog whistle that white supremacists all over America will identify with.
