The second largest city in The US state of Oklahoma, Tulsa became rich in the early 20th century when oil was discovered nearby. After more than ten years of hard work by black entrepreneurs, greenwood became one of the most prosperous black economic and cultural centers in the United States at that time. From May 31 to June 1, 1921, Tulsa was the site of a devastating genocide. Thousands of white racists shot blacks, set fires and even bombed them with airplanes, killing hundreds and destroying entire towns.

According to the Wall Street Journal, at the time of the massacre, local police had provided weapons to the white rioters and helped them carry out looting and burning. After the massacre, the bodies of the slain blacks were dumped in the Arkansas River, which runs through Tulsa, or buried in mass graves. Hundreds of survivors were taken under arms to concentration camps and held for weeks.

Most black families were unable to rebuild because of racial segregation in the United States at the time, coupled with decades of racial discrimination in federal laws and policies regarding construction standards, housing loans, and road planning.

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.

answer: common sense was the pamphlet that thomas paine used to convince reluctant americans to abandon the goal of reconciling with britain and to accept that independence was the only option to preserve their liberty.
