The broader theme of antagonism to Black success motivating the thoroughness of the destruction is a common observation about Tulsa.

Are we now not at all allowed to reference problems in other societies? We can complain about western society, and complaints from 100 years ago, when even my grandfather wasn't born yet, are valid criticism of America/Europe/... but things that happen today in India, Pakistan, Turkey are off limits?
Who complained about bringing up the foul stuff that goes on outside the US?

That's the urban myth, yes.
Well documented historical events aren’t urban myths.
