On The Cover:

Nadir Nelson’s painting “Tulsa” evokes both what had flourished and what was destroyed in a Black community in Oklahoma in 1921. African American families thrived in Tulsa’s Greenwood district until white mobs’ rage erupted into arson, shootings, and the loss of as many as 300 lives — now known as the Tulsa Race Massacre.
