Black wall street.
A place where black people thrive.
A street where their greatness showed.
A street where bonds were made.
A street that was home.
What happened?
What have the people done to anger the white man?
A anger that ruined the bonds, the greatness, and especially the homes.
Rebuilding won’t fix the damage.
Apologies won’t fix the hurt.
