- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Add to my list of Things I Never Learned in History Class: The Tulsa riots of 1921, the existence and destruction of Greenwood (the "Black Wall Street"). According to Rhodes' afterward,for over a year, the Black citizens of Greenwood were forced to live in internment camps and carry green cards (although I wasn't able to confirm this last bit after a quick search on-line, but perhaps a more savvy searcher or history buff can confirm/deny this?)
