WASHINGTON President Donald Trump was hit with strong backlash over his decision to hold a campaign rally next week on Juneteenth, a holiday marking the end of slavery, in Tulsa, the site of a horrific race massacre against black people in 1921.
Congressional Black Caucus Chairwoman Karen Bass, D-Calif., said the decision to hold a rally there on June 19 "is disrespectful to the lives and community that was lost during the Tulsa race riot."
"This was a massacre of innocent Black inhabitants by White supremacists in a span of 24 hours," Bass said in a statement to NBC News.
"This was the worst act of racial violence to date," she added, "and yet this is the place that the president, who has pursued nothing but a hostile and oppressive agenda for black people since his inauguration, has chosen to celebrate."

(13,107 posts)This is deliberate.
He is EVIL.
He wants to start a race war.
This has always been his intention.
He is a racist.
He is surrounded by racists giving him advice and writing his speeches.
He is EVIL.
