Friend of Trust for Public Land, 

The Greenwood District in Tulsa, Oklahoma, known as Black Wall Street,
was once a thriving hub of Black businesses and homes.

On May 31, 1921, this vibrant community was devastated by a violent
white mob, resulting in the loss of hundreds of lives and the
displacement of thousands of people. This tragic event obliterated
what was the wealthiest Black community in America, with effects that
have reverberated through generations.

The time is past due to honor Black Wall Street as a national
monument. This recognition is essential to celebrate Black excellence
and entrepreneurship and to confront and acknowledge the enduring
racism in our country.

Please urge President Biden to invoke the Antiquities Act and
designate Black Wall Street as a national monument today.

Less than a quarter of our national parks and monuments represent
historically marginalized and underrepresented communities. Together,
we can change this.

Take action now by sending your letter to President Biden.

Let's ensure that Black Wall Street's history is preserved for future
generations and remains a powerful testament to resilience and
strength.

Thank you for your commitment to honoring this critical piece of our
history.

With gratitude,

Myke Bybee
