U.S. President Joe Biden says hate hides and “we must not give hate a safe harbor.” Biden’s comments came on Tuesday in Tulsa, Oklahoma where he led remembrance of one of the nation’s darkest moments of racial violence, marking the 100th anniversary of the destruction of a thriving Black community in Tulsa. Biden helped commemorate the deaths of hundreds of Black people killed by a white mob a century ago, his visit coming amid a national reckoning on racial justice. “We do ourselves no favors by pretending none of this ever happened or doesn’t impact us today because it does still impact us today,” said BIden.
