* Remembering the Tulsa "Race Riot" (Massacre would be a more appropriate title I think) 90 years later: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/20/us/20tulsa.html
Three hundred people were murdered and 8000 left homeless when whites burnt an African American community to the ground. No compensation of any kind was paid for all that was lost and no one punished for the murders and property damage. Only 40 survivors are left, and if anything is to be done, it really needs to happen soon.
