Oklahoma Supreme Court to Reconsider 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre Reparations Case

Three survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, all over 100 years old, are appealing the dismissal of their lawsuit seeking reparations.
The Oklahoma Supreme Court has agreed to review the appeal and determine if the case can proceed to district court.
The survivors argue the massacre's impact continues to affect Tulsa's Black community and constitutes an ongoing public nuisance.
The state has declined to discuss a potential settlement, arguing the plaintiffs failed to outline an identifiable claim.
The lawsuit names the city, county, state entities and others as defendants responsible for the destruction of Tulsa's Greenwood district.
