Tulsa, Oklahoma’s
Greenwood Massacre was the most brutal race-related domestic terrorist attack in American history.
National Geographic is marking the 100th anniversary of this 20th-century tragedy with a new documentary, which sheds light on the horrors that decimated an entire economically self-contained Black community.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Nat Geo’s upcoming film, titled
Red Summer, will be directed by Dawn Porter. Previously, Porter produced a John Lewis documentary called
Good Trouble. The
Red Summer film project is set to air in June 2021.
