Join directors and executive producers Stanley Nelson and Marco Williams of the HISTORY Channel’s upcoming documentary Tulsa Burning: The 1921 Race Massacre, and Brenda Nails Alford — a descendent of Tulsa massacre survivors and Black Wall Street entrepreneur — for a special panel conversation moderated by The Washington Post’s Jonathan Capehart, host of MSNBC’s The Sunday Show. Tulsa Burning commemorates the 100th anniversary of one of the worst acts of racial violence in American history — a ruthless, devastating attack on Tulsa’s “Black Wall Street” by a white mob — a relatively little-known episode until recent years. Hear Nelson, Williams, and Alford discuss this important new film, why the Tulsa massacre still matters, how it continues to reverberate through the city and the country, why many of the most notorious stories of racial violence are left out of history books, and more. Use #RememberTulsa and tag @HISTORY to continue the conversation about this important piece of history. Tulsa Burning: The 1921 Race Massacre premieres Sunday, May 30 at 8 pm ET/PT on The HISTORY Channel. Subscribe for more videos like this: http://bit.ly/1GpwawV
