May 31 - June 1, 2021 marks the centennial of the horrendous race massacre in the Greenwood area of Tulsa, Oklahoma that left over 300 Black citizens dead and 9,000 homeless following the looting and burning of Black Wall Street by white Tulsans. After 1921: Notes from Tulsa’s Black Wall Street and Beyond deeply questions the official commemoration of the massacre, formerly termed a “race riot.” It is a richly layered collection of poems, essays, and images edited by artist Crystal Z Campbell and co-published by her Archive Acts (archiveacts.com) and VSW Press. To experience the voices gathered in After 1921 is to better understand American history and the near secret, violent transgressions to take property, land, and destroy Black and Indigenous bodies in the process. - Visual Studies Workshop
