But, just a few years later, on May 31, 1921, the teenaged Ed hid in a bathtub as a white mobdescended on his neighborhood. They laid waste to 35 blocks and murdering as many as 300 people. The Tulsa Race Massacre was one of the worst acts of racist violence in United States history. The Goodwins and many of their neighbors soon rebuilt the district into "a Mecca," in Ed's words, where nightlife thrived, small businesses flourished, and an underworld economy lived comfortably alongside public storefronts. Ed grew into a prominent businessman and bought a community newspaper called the Oklahoma Eagle to chronicle its resurgence and battles against white bigotry. He and his genteel wife, Jeanne, raised an ambitious family, who became literal poster-children for black progress, and their son Jim, an attorney, embodied their hopes for the Civil Rights Movement. But, by the 1970s urban renewal policies had nearly emptied the neighborhood, even as Jim and his neighbors tried to hold onto pieces of Greenwood. Today, the newspaper remains, and Ed's granddaughter Regina represents the neighborhood in theOklahoma state legislature, working alongside a new generation of local activists"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 30 $a Goodwin family. 650 0 $a Tulsa Race Massacre, Tulsa, Okla., 1921. 650 0 $a Urban renewal $z Tulsa $z Tulsa $x History. 650 0 $a African Americans $z Tulsa $z Tulsa $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a African Americans $z Tulsa $z Tulsa $v Biography. 651 0 $a Greenwood (Tulsa, Okla.) $x History. $x History. 651 0 $a Tulsa (Okla.) $x History. $x History. 651 0 $a Greenwood (Tulsa, Okla.) $v Biography. 651 0 $a Tulsa (Okla.) $v Biography. 776 08 $i Online version: 776 08 $a Luckerson, Victor $t Built from the fire. $b First edition $d New York : Random House, [2023] $z 9780593134382 $w (DLC) 2022055078 941 $a 19 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240509013645.0 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240409044505.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20240402013528.0 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314025457.0 952 $l YAPC771 $d 20240118010744.0 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214031732.0 952 $l UGPF911 $d 20231207020506.0 952 $l FYPI314 $d 20231003011410.0 952 $l UJPE911 $d 20230915010938.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230902014457.0 952 $l CMPE792 $d 20230819010105.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230802012701.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230713113933.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230708011617.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20230706012751.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20230706010121.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230704012337.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230701010044.0 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20230602015702.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=535829A2F08A11EDB88C213231ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
