Elaine Massacre: how a Black labor movement was met with a violent white mob – 360 video

In 1919 in Elaine, Arkansas, white mobs and federal troops killed hundreds of Black residents – and America has tried to forget the story. This is part two of Red Summers, a 360 video series by the artist and film-maker Bayeté Ross Smith on the untold American history of racial terrorism from 1917 to 1921. The project is funded by Black Public Media, Eyebeam, Sundance Institute, Crux XR and the Open Society Foundations Subscribe to The Guardian on YouTube ► https://ift.tt/16bR3Lu Tulsa race massacre: an act of terrorism America tried to forget – 360 video ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ireRP2I1OzQ Read stories from descendants of Elaine survivors here ► https://ift.tt/3gBdu3T The Guardian publishes independent journalism, made possible by supporters.
