A.J. SMITHERMAN, BLACK WALL STREET & THE TULSA MASSACRE OF 1921
I am currently working on projects related to my great-grandfather A.J. Smitherman and his role as a co-founder of Black Wall Street who was indicted for inciting what became known as the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921. A.J. Smitherman was a Press Pioneer & Political Visionary and was Editor and Publisher of The Tulsa Star, the first Democratic Daily newspaper in America.
