So something about the 1921 Tulsa race riot I don’t think gets appreciated enough:

The wealth at the heart of “Black Wall Street” was windfall oil money. Oklahoma, once the “Oklahoma and Indian Territories”, were a last-chance outlet for settlement, thin soil if you had the gumption or misfortune to get it, tho people were at least used to not being white. But an early-20th oil boom left some of the most marginal landholders rich.

So the black wealth was all sudden surprise first-generation new money, money that moved off the land and into town and capitalized local black businesses and enterprises beyond (Black Wall Street). The oil boom drew a new wave of poor workers to Oklahoma looking for their lucky break and when they filtered into domestic service people remarked on how it was the only place in America with a norm of white servants in black households.

So in a very unsettled environment from the end of WWI into the mid-1920s, when “white supremacy” and “socialism” were each leading candidates for the organizing principle of the newly coherent nation, it’s not only the biggest example of physical revolt against nonwhites but the one of the biggest examples of physical revolt against capitalholders

Intersectionality!
