Tulsa massacre is a better example of something glossed over in school.
When my wife and I saw Watchmen the series, my wife was blown away when I told her that really happened. Whites literally told blacks to go away and form their own town, so they did and prospered, so the whites came and murdered the prosperous black community, and nobody was punished for any of this.
Literally not even mentioned in school back in the 80s.
So many events like this, shout out to Howard Zinn, A People's History of the United States.
