On this day in 1921, the Tulsa Race Massacre began when mobs of white people attacked black residents and businesses of the Greenwood District, known as “Black Wall Street”, killing hundreds of black people and making thousands homeless.

Scott Ellsworth called it “the single worst incident of racial violence in American history”, with estimates ranging from 75-300 people killed, 800 wounded, and 10,000 black families made homeless from the destruction of property.

The massacre began over Memorial Day weekend after 19-year-old Dick Rowland, a black shoeshiner, was accused of assaulting Sarah Page, the 17-year-old white elevator operator of the nearby Drexel Building.

An armed group of black men showed up to the jail to counter the lynch mob had been formed, and shots rang out as a white member of the mob tried to disarm one of the black men. The initial violence left ten people dead, and a mob of enraged white people stormed black neighborhoods, indiscriminately killing people and destroying property.

For 75 years (until 1996), the massacre was almost totally omitted from local, state, and national histories. It was not recognized in the Tulsa Tribune feature of “Fifteen Years Ago Today” or “Twenty-Five Years Ago Today”, and a 2017 report detailing the history of the Tulsa Fire Department from 1897 until the date of publication made no mention of the 1921 fire.

After 1st step A 8n, B 14n, C 2n

After 2nd step A 16n, B 4n, C 4n

After 3rd step A 8n, B 8n, C 8n

After the third step, each has twice as many as A had initially. The rest is clear.

A Mushroom Incident

Marusya, Kolya, Vanya, Andryusha, and Petya went looking for mushrooms. Only Marusya took her search seriously. The four boys spent most of their time lying in the grass and telling stories. When it was time to return, Marusya had 45 mushrooms and the boys had none. Marusya was sympathetic. “It won’t look good for you boys when we get back to the camp.” She gave each boy some mushrooms, leaving none for herself. On the way back, Kolya found 2 mushrooms and Andryusha doubled the number of the mushrooms he already had. But Vanya and Petya fooled around all the way. As a result, Vanya lost 2 mushrooms and Petya lost half his mushrooms. At camp they counted up and each boy had the same number of mushrooms.

How many mushrooms did Marusya give each boy?

Ngl some mushrooms would it the spot rn 😋 any way good luck and hope everyones has a good day. :soviet-heart: and dm the handsome and smart @Wmill.
