[OC] I asked Georgians (U.S.) if they learned in school about the 1912 racial cleansing in Forsyth County (GA), only 11% of respondents were taught this.her42311 t1_j9hb3dq wrote
Incidentally, I grew up in a city right next to Tulsa, and didn't learn about the Tulsa Race Massacre until I was an adult. Also what I did learn at first was wrong, because it was told to me by someone of an older generation and nobody wants to be the bad guy of their own story. So I believe your math is probably accurate.

Here is the data on Tulsa. I did this a while back. It was 50/50 which is much better than Georgia, but it makes sense. Tulsa is one of, if not the most, infamous massacres of black folks in American history. https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/1182f8q/oc_i_asked_georgians_us_if_they_learned_in_school/j9f82x4/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3
