Overheard several mentions of this event on the news this weekend, since it's the 100th anniversary of the event, but had never heard of it before. I grew up in Kansas, obviously not that long ago, but find it odd that such a major event was completely unmentioned, to my recollection. Not surprised that it happened, or that it would be dug up at this present time. What I did hear, and am seeing now poking around the interwebs is much outrage at the huge number of dead and massive damage. What I'm not seeing is the questions over the number, because it was the 1920's and record keeping wasn't the great be all end all it is now. Not to downplay the tragedy, but the numbers, even from a 2001 commission investigation swing wide, from 36 total to 350 total, large majority blacks in all estimates.
Anyone more familiar with the event, it's effects, and it's lack of discussion? Most people don't like to talk about ugly parts of history, but this seems like one the race pimps would have on speed dial.
