North Carolina city marks 125th anniversary of the white-supremacist attack with a week of memorial events…

UK study of 1948 Israeli massacre of Palestinian village reveals mass grave sites | Palestinian territories | The Guardian

Palestinian survivors and historians have long claimed that men living in Tantura, a fishing village of approximately 1,500 people near Haifa, were executed after surrendering to the Alexandroni Brigade and their bodies dumped in a mass grave believed to be located under an area that is now a car park for Dor Beach. Estimates have ranged from 40 to 200 people… 

The Tantura families' committee and Adalah hope that the Forensic Architecture investigation will lead to more inquiries into the events of 1948, which Palestinians call the Nakba, or catastrophe. Approximately 700,000 people – about half the population – were expelled or fled from their homes in the war surrounding the creation of the Israeli state, and about 500 villages destroyed…

Survivors Say Russian Mercenaries Slaughtered 70 Civilians in Gold Mine Massacre

… Muslim rebels and Christian militants still control much of the country and continue to fight each other to take control of territory and mineral resources.

‘We want our land back’: for descendants of the Elaine massacre, history is far from settled

"Our people were doing well here before 1919: owning our own land, selling our own crops, teaching in schools, running businesses. Like in Tulsa, the massacre happened here because we were doing well. They sent people from Helena and neighboring states to Elaine to murder and lynch us. They changed our deeds in the courthouse and did whatever they needed to do to get us out of the way so they could take our land. There were some sharecroppers here, but many of us were families, like mine, who owned land."
