Malcom X

BEULAH LANE KEENAN SMITH

Born: May 20, 1908

"Mobsters had kicked a hole in the side of the store and had set it on fire.  That was the saddest day of my life.  That riot cheated us out of childhood innocence.  My life dreams were destroyed too by that riot.  In fact, I had made up my mind to become a school teacher when I grew up.  But that riot put an end to that.  We lost everything in the riot, and I had to drop out of school to work and help with family support.  Not only did I not become a school teacher, I was not able to even finish high school!  What a loss that was to Tulsa and to society.  I had such a calling for the teaching profession, and I had such a love for learning and for teaching.  I know in my heart that I would have been a good teacher."

CLARENCE BRUNER

Born: July 28, 1904

"When the riot broke out, I was a teenager working as a bellhop at the Mills hotel in downtown Tulsa.  We made good money.  Tulsa was a booming oil town and people were always coming to Tulsa.  Hotels, restaurants, entertainment places, taxis, shoe shine parlors, department stores, banks, churches (so many on Boulder Avenue that it was called Cathedral Row) - all profited in the booming oil town.  And then came the riot!"

BLANCHE COLE

Born: April 21, 1904

"We found that we had lost everything.  Everything we owned had been stolen or burned.  I wondered why we had come back.  There was nothing to come back to.  The rented house was badly burned and everything stolen or burned.  Even my child toys and treasures had been taken.  What the mobsters hadn't stolen, they scattered about, set on fire, or smashed and damaged.  I just sat down and cried.  I was a nervous wreck."
