Someone no doubt needs to inform this President and all those who say there is no racism or need for any protests of the significance of this date, as just one more example.

Tulsa Race Massacre
Tulsa race riot of 1921
On this day, June 1, 1921, Tulsa's prosperous black community was destroyed in what became known as the Tulsa race riot.
"Known as the 'Black Wall Street,' and the nation's wealthiest African-American neighborhood, the Greenwood district of Tulsa, OK, is attacked by gangs of marauding whites. When the Tulsa race riot ends, 35 city blocks have been burned, 800 are injured, upwards of 300 are dead, and 10,000 left homeless."
From the founding of our nation, through 1921 to today.
Let's do better, America.
Much better.
