Judge Dismisses Lawsuit for Tulsa Race Massacre Reparations

TL;DR Summary
A judge in Oklahoma has dismissed a lawsuit seeking reparations for the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, which saw a white mob destroy the prosperous Black district of Greenwood. The lawsuit, brought by three survivors of the attack, aimed to obtain legal justice and compensation for the ongoing racial and economic disparities resulting from the massacre. The judge's decision has disappointed the survivors, who are all over 100 years old, and a group supporting the lawsuit has suggested they may appeal. The city of Tulsa remains committed to addressing the historical event and its impact on the community.
