Did you know the first time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasn't on 9/11 or at Pearl Harbor? It was the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 — when white supremacists flew planes to drop bombs and shoot at Black Americans.

This week marks the 105-year anniversary of one of the most horrific and underrecognized acts of racial violence in American history.

Today, the culprits faced zero consequences.

Rep. @[email protected] in Montgomery: “We’re here united to take on this new confederacy, 60 years after the Selma March… because we know their intent is to dismantle everything gained during the civil rights movement.”

"Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at today's rally in Alabama: “I am here because our destinies are tied. I am here because this county was built on solidarity, and all of us here are inheritors of the legacy of the Civil Rights Movement and that also required the freedom and the bravery of the Freedom Riders who came down to help, support and assist that. So we stand on that legacy and we are here to stand with you. You are not alone.”
