LatinoAltROCK We are an American music experience in the form of a radio show, with content that widens community. LatinoAltROCK! That puts LatinoAltROCK!

is an American music experience in the form of a radio show, with content that spans borders, widens communities and provides an understanding of a world beyond geographical boundaries. Increasingly, more of us now define our “neighborhoods” on the basis of shared interests, relationships, experiences, perspectives and alliances. We may identify more with people who enjoy and care about the same

things, than we do with people who just happen to come from the same block, or even the same country. We aim at learning from each other in spite of our physical place in the world. We’re excited to showcase the richness of the Hispanic perspective mixed with the local music scene, because Minnesota is where we live: In the middle of a diverse musical spectrum. in a position to make connections and build relationships with and for Latino and non-Latino audiences alike. Our goal with this show is to navigate the point of fusion between cultures, by leveraging and celebrating these shared enthusiasms and networks of interest. Content consists primarily of music, plus some international sports, and global news, plus current and local community events.

The Tulsa Race Massacre occurred between May 31 and June 1, 1921, when a white mob violently attacked the prosperous African American community of Greenwood in Tulsa, Oklahoma, historically known as "Black Wall Street".
Over 35 square blocks were burned, leaving up to 300 people dead and thousands homeless.

The violence was ignited on May 30, 1921, after Dick Roland, a young Black shoe shiner, was accused of assaulting Sarah Paige, a white elevator operator in a downtown building.

Although the encounter was likely a misunderstanding and local police planned to dismiss the charges, inflammatory reports in the Tulsa Tribune newspaper incensed the local white community.

On the evening of May 31, an armed group of Black men, many of whom were World War I veterans went to the Tulsa courthouse to protect Roland from a lynch mob. A standoff ensued, shots were fired, and the vastly outnumbered Black men retreated to the Greenwood neighborhood.

Throughout the night and into the next day, armed mobs of white residents ,some deputized and armed by local officials invaded Greenwood. They looted, burned, and destroyed more than 1,400 Black-owned homes and businesses. Notably, rioters even utilized private airplanes to drop incendiary bombs on the neighborhood.

The Oklahoma governor subsequently declared martial law, and the National Guard arrived, detaining thousands of surviving Black residents in internment camps.

Contemporary news reports downplayed the event, and the tragic destruction was largely omitted from American history books for decades.

While exact casualty numbers were heavily obscured at the time, historians estimate that between 50 and 300 Black residents were killed.
