Yeah.. I got caught up in getting everything ready to drive up there.. then running around between soccer games.. Will be that way again though, hopefully on the Rocket a time or two! My son's 16, but plays on an 18 yr old team, so they are hitting college showcases everywhere. He's not old enough for recruiters to contact, but have already received a couple of e-mails from colleges.. so he's getting some good early exposure.. He is 16.. and a 6'4" and growing goal keeper hoping to play soccer in college and maybe even pro if the opportunity comes up..
I have several friends in OKC who keep trying to get me to move up there.. lol With those kind of laws, maybe I should!..

Burning of Greenwood, Oklahoma - The Black Wall Street
by Samuel Black
After the civil war many African-Americans settled in Oklahoma because of employment opportunities from the oil fields. Around 1908 the community of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma was established. The Daily Tulsa Star was an African-American owned newspaper. Businesses owned by African-Americans flourished. Their communities were the best. Their schools were excellent. Greenwood was coined the Black Wall Street. However, because of jealousy, deceit, and discrimination, Greenwood was burned to the ground by white racists on June 1,1921.
Based on the growth of African-Americans in Greenwood, Jim Crow laws legalizing segregation were passed in 1908. However, following World War I, the United States Supreme Court declared the Jim Crow segregation laws unconstitutional in 1915. African-Americans progressed thereafter without restriction. Growth ensued. Consequently, the African-American community became subjected to harassment and other discriminatory actions from white mobs.
