Will I Belong?

“The section—the incredibly diverse group of 94 classmates, hand-picked to create a representative microcosm of the entire +900 class —has been the most wonderful unexpected gift in my HBS journey. To them I am grateful for the many lessons they have taught me, but, most importantly, to them I am grateful for giving me the freedom to be my authentic self.”

The story of the 1921 Tulsa Massacre, in which an estimated 300 African Americans died, was long kept quiet, says Oklahoma State Rep. Regina Goodwin. Survivors were afraid to talk about it, she explains, and the perpetrators of the violence never faced criminal charges. In the newest episode of #HBSColdCall, Professor Mihir Desai discuss the arguments for and against reparations in response to the Tulsa Massacre and, more broadly, to the effects of slavery and racist government policies in the United States: hbs.me/tulsamassacre
