The Oklahoma Supreme Court has dismissed a lawsuit seeking reparations filed by the last two known survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. The lawsuit argued that the massacre, which devastated a Black neighborhood in Tulsa, amounted to an ongoing public nuisance. The court's decision, which upholds the dismissal, likely marks the final opportunity for the survivors to receive justice and reparations for the deadly attack.
