Rise Again: Tulsa and the Red Summer
““Dawn Porter’s documentary about the Tulsa Race Massacre balances the story of trauma with insight, fury, and tenderness.””
Rise Again: Tulsa and the Red Summer follows Washington Post reporter DeNeen Brown as she chronicles the discovery of a mass grave in Tulsa Oklahoma and investigates the reign of racial terror and legacy of violence that swept across the United States in the early 20th century.
One hundred years after the two-day Tulsa Massacre, one of America's most violent racial conflicts, this documentary explores the role of media during these early 20th century events and today's revived call for justice and anti-racism.
Rise Again was released June 18, 2021 on National Geographic.
