C: An incident on a railway car
The Tulsa Race Riots, also known as the Tulsa Race Massacre, were triggered by an incident on an elevator on May 30, 1921, involving a young black man named Dick Rowland and a white female elevator operator named Sarah Page. Rowland was accused of assaulting Page, although the exact details of what happened remain unclear. This incident sparked accusations, rumors, and tensions between the black and white communities in Tulsa, Oklahoma, eventually leading to a violent and destructive race riot that resulted in the deaths of hundreds of African Americans and the burning down of the prosperous black neighborhood of Greenwood, also known as "Black Wall Street."
