Kimberly RuizMore than 100 years after many of Tulsa's Black residents were killed and their businesses were destroyed by white rioters, the community, including a woman who survived the massacre, is still finding ways to rebuild and seek justice.
An estimated 300 Black residents were killed and thousands were left homeless after the Tulsa massacre, according to historians. "We found bullets and barbed wire next to doll parts next to lined up toys, next to marbles," she said. "They tried to wipe out families and children."Tiffany Crutcher, an activist, said she's been working to raise awareness of what happened and fight for justice. She has traveled to Congress with survivors and their families on multiple occasions to ensure that their stories are never forgotten.
