President Donald Trump plans to host his first campaign rally since the pandemic started on Juneteenth in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
“A Trump rally with rebel flags (a symbol of slavery and racism) in Tulsa, OK (the place of #TulsaMassacre) on Juneteenth (a day of emancipation recognition) is more than a slap in the face to African Americans,” said Texas Rep. Al Green.
“Trump is holding his first rally of the campaign on Juneteenth (when enslaved blacks were emancipated) in Tulsa almost a 100 years after the massacre of its black citizens.
“Tulsans have managed one of the first successful reopenings in the nation, so we can only guess that may be the reason President Trump selected Tulsa as a rally site,” Bynum said.
“It’s an incredible honor to have President Trump select Tulsa for the rally,” Inhofe said.
