It's always about the $$$$$$$$$.
A cornerstone event of the Tulsa Race Massacre commemoration in Oklahoma was abruptly canceled because lawyers representing survivors and descendants demanded a higher fee for their participation in the event than had been originally agreed upon, a commission official said.
Legal representatives for the three living survivors approached the Tulsa Race Massacre Centennial Commission about including them in the "Remember and Rise" occasion in return for $100,000 each and a $2 million seed gift to a reparations coalition fund, state Sen. Kevin Matthews, chairman of the commission, said in a Friday press conference.
The parties agreed to those terms, he said.
At the last minute, the lawyers representing the survivors moved to change the agreement, requesting $1 million for each and $50 million for the fund, said Matthews, who did not take questions.
"We could not respond to those demands," he said. "I absolutely want the survivors, the descendants and others that were affected to be financially and emotionally supported, however this is not the way, no matter how hard we try."

BLM has $$$$ issues. Floyd Family went after the cash right away. And this.
Pattern is pretty clear.
Justice has a...um...price
Shoulda asked for Bitcoin...
Of course it’s about the money.
What do you think the massacre was about? What do you think happened to all that BlackWallStreet property.
Calculate the millions in generational wealth that was literally stolen from the people who built a thriving community and then multiply that through the rest of the pogroms of that period.
The city, county, and state basically those that perpetrated the carnage in the first place .The commission has raised goo gobs of money on the bones of the victims and the beneficiaries are the developers putting together a touristy experience while the governor signs legislation prohibiting the teaching of the history.
