On June 11, 2020, Former Vice President Joe Biden said: "Juneteenth is the 1st major massacre literally speaking of Black Wallstreet".

Juneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. Celebrated on June 19th.

What Biden referred to as "the 1st massacre on Black Wallstreet", was actually the Tulsa Race Massacre which took place on May 31 and June 1, 1921, when mobs of White residents, many of them deputized and given weapons by city officials, attacked Black residents and businesses of the Greenwood District in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
