REMEMBERING THE TULSA RACE MASSACRE OF 1921

  ©Wendell Griffen, 2023   On the evening of May 31, 1921, a mob of white people attacked the homes and businesses of Black people who lived in the thriving Greenwood community considered the “Black Wall Street” in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Throughout that night and into the following day, June 1, the white mob burned homes, churches, and even a school. Here is a link to a 2021 National Public Radio retrospective about the event based on the account of Olivia Hooker, who was six years old when the massacre happened ( https://www.npr.org/2021/05/28/1001376496/100-years-later-a-survivors-story-of-the-tulsa-race-massacre ). Now read this online report about the Tulsa Race Massacre from Britanica ( https://www.britannica.com/event/Tulsa-race-massacre-of-1921 ). Please read the February 2001 official report that is linked in that report ( https://www.okhistory.org/research/forms/freport.pdf ). People should also read Dr. Jerrolyn Eulinberg's womanist perspective on the Tulsa Race Mass...

THE CRUEL DISMANTLING OF DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION (DEI) AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS

  THE CRUEL DISMANTLING OF DIVERSITY, EQUITY, AND INCLUSION (DEI) AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS © Wendell Griffen, 2023   In an email message sent on Tuesday, June 13, Dr. Charles Robinson (Chancellor at the University of Arkansas flagship campus in Fayetteville, Arkansas) announced that staff and resources from the campus Division of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) would be reallocated to other campus offices beginning this fall. I’m posting a link to the message Chancellor Robinson sent the campus so you can read his words. https://chancellor.uark.edu/key-communications/150-forward-update-from-chancellor-robinson.php Robinson sent his message two weeks before the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) decided, by a 6-3 vote, that the admission policies at Harvard University and the University of North Carolina (UNC) are racially discriminatory because both schools include racial identity among the factors considered in determining who to admit. The SCO...

WHY I FORMED AN EXPLORATORY COMMITTEE

  ©Wendell Griffen, 2024 Following a recent meeting with about 40 people from a cross-section of Pulaski County residents, I formed an exploratory committee to determine whether to be a candidate for County Judge of Pulaski County in 2026. This group will help me “test the waters” so to speak about whether that effort would be feasible, and who would be likely to help me if it is feasible.   Perhaps you’re wondering why I am considering leaving retirement and taking on the challenge of seeking to become chief executive of Pulaski County government. The short answer is because I want to serve the more than 400,000 people who call Pulaski County our home.   Whether we were born here, moved here to study, teach, do research, obtain health care, retire, or for other reasons, Pulaski County is our Community. I want to help our Community learn, work, and grow, by celebrating and promoting the fact that Pulaski County is home to wonderful people, the seat of state govern...
