In a groundbreaking move, the U.S. Senate has passed a bill to establish a national monument in Tulsa, Oklahoma, honoring the tragic events of 1921. During that two-day period, an entire thriving Black neighborhood was devastated and hundreds of Black residents lost their lives.
More than a century later, the unveiling of this "road to repair" marks a powerful step toward reconciliation and healing. This monument is not just a tribute—it symbolizes resilience and the commitment to mend deep historical wounds. ⛪️✊
The initiative inspires hope among survivors, descendants, and communities worldwide, reminding us that acknowledging the past is key to building a brighter future. As young global citizens, we can all appreciate the importance of recognizing history and turning pain into progress.
