Tulsa Massacre Reparations Book

Civil rights attorney Damario Solomon-Simmons learned about the Tulsa Race Massacre during college. This revelation inspired him to lead a reparations campaign for survivors and descendants. His new book, “Redeem a Nation: The Century-Long Battle to Restore the Soul of America,” explores this fight for justice and aims to address historic racial injustices. The Tulsa massacre in 1921 destroyed the prosperous Black community of Greenwood, displacing thousands. Solomon-Simmons argues that America must address these past wrongs to move forward. Despite legal setbacks, he continues to push for reparations and acknowledgment. He believes justice involves both compensation and recognition of the harm done.
