GREENWOOD RISING EXISTS TO EDUCATE THE PEOPLE ABOUT TULSA'S HISTORIC GREENWOOD DISTRICT, THE BLACK WALL STREET MINDSET, AND AMERICA'S HARD RACIAL HISTORY TO INSPIRE THEM TO WORK TOWARD SOCIAL JUSTICE AND RACIAL RECONCILIATION AT HOME AND BEYOND. THIS MISSION IS ACCOMPLISHED FIRST AND FOREMOST BY ENGAGING VISITORS IN AN INTERACTIVE, THOUGHT PROVOKING, AND HISTORICALLY FACTUAL EXPERIENCE INVOLVING PICTURES, VIDEOS, ARTIFACTS, ETC. DOCENTS LEAD GUESTS ON TOURS THROUGH THE HISTORY CENTER AND GUESTS ARE PROVIDED WITH PAMPHLETS THAT ASK CHALLENGING QUESTIONS TO EVOKE THOUGHTFUL ACTIONS WHICH GUESTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO COMMUNICATE VIA THE COMMITMENT WALL.
