Ryan Cass Fire in Little Africa artists in front of the Skyline Mansion, a now Black-owned venue originally built by a KKK leader who helped orchestrate the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre. This photo is inspired by a group photo of original Black Wall Street business owners from before 1921. In partnership with the Bob Dylan Center and Woody Guthrie Center, the project marks 100th anniversary of Tulsa s Black Wall Street massacre. The 100th anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre, one of the most significant yet long-suppressed chapters in Black history, will be commemorated on the May 28 album Fire in Little Africa. Featuring original material by a collective of emerging Oklahoma hip-hop artists, the 21-track collection will be released through Black Forum/Motown Records in partnership with Tulsa’s Bob Dylan Center and Woody Guthrie Center.
