The Tulsa Race Massacre occurred between May 31 and June 1, 1921, when a white mob violently attacked the prosperous African American community of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, historically known as "Black Wall Street".
Over 35 square blocks were burned, leaving up to 300 people dead and thousands homeless.

The violence was ignited on May 30, 1921, after Dick Roland, a young Black shoe shiner, was accused of assaulting Sarah Paige, a white elevator operator in a downtown building.

Although the encounter was likely a misunderstanding and local police planned to dismiss the charges, inflammatory reports in the Tulsa Tribune newspaper incensed the local white community.

On the evening of May 31, an armed group of Black men, many of whom were World War I veterans went to the Tulsa courthouse to protect Roland from a lynch mob. A standoff ensued, shots were fired, and the vastly outnumbered Black men retreated to the Greenwood neighborhood.

Throughout the night and into the next day, armed mobs of white residents ,some deputized and armed by local officials invaded Greenwood. They looted, burned, and destroyed more than 1,400 Black-owned homes and businesses. Notably, rioters even utilized private airplanes to drop incendiary bombs on the neighborhood.

The Oklahoma governor subsequently declared martial law, and the National Guard arrived, detaining thousands of surviving Black residents in internment camps.

Contemporary news reports downplayed the event, and the tragic destruction was largely omitted from American history books for decades.

While exact casualty numbers were heavily obscured at the time, historians estimate that between 50 and 300 Black residents were killed.

“Incel” is a portmanteau of “involuntary celibate.” This f**kless—I mean feckless—group is comprised almost exclusively of young men, usually white, who lament their inability to get laid. It’s a toxic online subculture that despises women while also wanting to use them for s*x. But it’s not really about the s*x. Rather, incels are a hate group that cannot abide having their sense of entitlement thwarted. They want to conquer the bodies of beautiful women to gain status in the male hierarchy, or some dumbf**k bu****it idea like that.

--On This Day in History S**t Went Down: May 23, 2014—

The Isla Vista, California, massacre on May 23, 2014, brought the word “incel” into the common vernacular. The term was actually coined by a woman in the ’90s as a way to help people. But like many things it was co-opted and warped by men like Elliot Rodger.

Rodger, a 22-year-old virgin, couldn’t find a girlfriend, and to him that was enough to justify mass murder. But not before writing a 107,000-word hate-filled manifesto about how much he despised women for “starving him of s*x.” Using a combination of stabbing, shooting, and his car as a weapon, he murdered six people and wounded fourteen others during his rampage before putting his gun to his own head.

I wish people bent on murder-suicide would do it in the reverse order.

To give you an idea of how f**ked-up the incel community is, they anointed Rodger “Saint Elliot” because he “martyred” himself to the cause. Incels number in the tens of thousands online, and several mass murders have been committed by them in North America, resulting in dozens of deaths. A shift in how these killings are treated came as a result of a February 24, 2020, stabbing attack in Toronto that killed one woman and injured another. A minor-aged male incel was charged. Police later labeled it an act of terrorism.

And that is an accurate determination. Incels are as radicalized as any terror group. They have their own lexicon to slot people into various groups. They are nihilists who feel their lives are doomed due to not being considered conventionally attractive, so burn the world down. But they are not all beyond hope. There are many former incels. Learn the terminology and seek to intervene if you know someone who is at risk of being sucked into this terrorist organization.

NOTE: This piece was researched and written by a human, not some bu****it "ai" plagiarism software.

Those who cannot remember the past need a history teacher who says “f**k” a lot. Get both volumes of ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY S**T WENT DOWN at JamesFell.com/books.
