In Our Blood: Genocide in Slow Motion

02/05/21 • 54 min

In this first chapter of a LATTO thought's first miniseries, CA attempts to contain centuries of indigenous history in order to better understand the dynamics and consequences of the United States's concept of blood quantum — the racial calculus that led to Indigenous detribalization, land infringement, and how it began to collide with Jim Crow's antiblack one drop rule.

In Our Blood: One Equal Citizenship

This Memorial Day will mark the 100th anniversary of one of the most destructive racial massacres in U.S. history. But when we think back about the Greenwood District in Tulsa, Oklahoma, what are we missing? The inspiring and heartbreaking story of the fabled Black Main Street is indeed unique, but not because of the devastation that Black folks survived and rebuilt from its ashes. The second chapter of "In Our Blood" reveals that what set Greenwood apart from the rest of the nation—along with over fifty Black towns established in Oklahoma from 1865 to 1920—was the collision of the one drop rule and blood quantum. // Music provided by Kristina Sharpe, Dawn Avery, Makaya McCraven, and APM Music.
