Tim Madigan and Hilary Beard on Black Wall Street and the Tulsa Race Massacre

In this episode of "Keen On", Andrew is joined by Tim Madigan and Hilary Beard, the authors of "The Burning: Black Wall Street and the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921", to tell a long-forgotten story of Black prosperity and resilience decimated by racist violence, as well as to discuss the connection between the historical significance of the massacre and the ongoing struggle for racial justice in America.

In a journalism career spanning more than three decades, Tim Madigan has written for the Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, Politico, Reader's Digest, and for thirty years the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

Hilary Beard uses her skills as a writer; as someone highly skilled in deconstructing complex topics to make them accessible to the general public; as a creative; and as a faith walker to educate people in ways that help them develop to their full potential. Whether as an award-winning writer and journalist; a public speaker; through training and development experiences; or through executive, racial-equity, or personal-development coaching in individual or group settings, Hilary feels most joyful when she's helping people overcome limiting beliefs and develop strategies to evolve into the vision of themselves they envision in their mind’s eye and to fulfill their spiritual destiny.
