DailyKenn.com — While White House occupant Joe Biden was ruing an imagined massacred near Tulsa, Oklahoma that occurred one-hundred years ago, a massacre was ongoing in real time in Chicago, Illinois.
The death toll in Tulsa's Greenwood area in 1921 is unknown. Reports range from dozens to hundreds. The highest death toll we could find was estimated to be 300. The event was a civilian battle in which black and white communities took up arms against each other. Historians call it a riot. Biden decided it was a massacre.
Compare Tulsa, 1921, to Chicago, 2021.
The homicide toll in Chicago is 297 so far this year according to the Chicago Sun-Times. That's not an exaggerated estimate. It's a statistic. It's about the same as the highest death toll reported after the Tulsa riot.
We wonder: Why do the lives lost 100 years ago in Tulsa matter more than those in Chicago this year? Where is the outrage?
To underscore the ongoing Chicago massacre, there were four people fatally shot in a single incident on Tuesday, June 15. Four others were wounded.
"It was the city’s third mass shooting in little more than a week," the Sun-Times reported. "Two of the wounded remained in critical condition Wednesday as police reported no new developments. They wouldn’t say whether anyone was in custody."
In both Tulsa, 1921 and Chicago, 2021 the majority of those killed were black.
It's almost as if someone wants America's black neighborhoods to be killing fields.
One thing remains certain: As the 2021 Chicago massacre continues, the death toll will far exceed that of the 1921 Tulsa "massacre".
