Curriculum Resources
Greenwood Resource Portal
This portal is dedicated to promoting reconciliation by providing resources that contribute to discussion and reflection-based teaching and learning. The scope includes and moves beyond the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre to focus on the continuum of life in and around Tulsa’s historic Greenwood community. Curriculum resources have been developed to highlight its depth, richness, resilience, and to portray the diversity of life within Tulsa’s Greenwood, pre and post 1921. Through these curriculum resources, students will also be encouraged to reflect on how local events shed light on other events across the nation and the world.
