The lies and myths that blacks are ignorant is a statement that should never be made. We can see from history, actually history that has been hidden that blacks are very intelligent. Blacks after slavery began to prosper not just in the south, but also in midwest. Tulsa, Oklahoma was one of those places that allow blacks to prosper. Jim Crow laws hindered some progress that blacks tried to make. But, using intelligence and working around the laws by legal means they prospered. They owned stores, hospitals, pharmacies, etc. The history of Tulsa, Oklahoma in 1921 tells the story of black property known as the Black Wall Street lost nearly all that they had in a race riot.
