On Monday, the U.S. Department of Justice announced it has launched its first-ever federal review into the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, one of the deadliest attacks on Black Americans in U.S. history. Conducted by the DOJ's Civil Rights Division's Cold Case Unit under the Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crime Act, the probe aims to investigate the racially motivated violence that destroyed a thriving Black community in Tulsa, Oklahoma over a century ago. The DOJ intends to issue a public report of its findings by the end of this year. This marks a significant step as previous investigations were conducted by local authorities and historians, making this the first federal examination of the incident.
