(Oct. 1, 2019)—Beginning Oct. 8, The Bob Dylan Center℠ will update its exhibition, Bob Dylan: Face Value and Beyond, with never-before-seen items from Dylan’s mid-1970s period that produced the renowned album Blood on the Tracks and the Rolling Thunder Revue tour. The exhibition, at Tulsa’s Gilcrease Museum of American Art, has been extended through Jan. 5, 2020. In addition to its exploration of Dylan’s visual art, Face Value and Beyond features the first public display of the “blue notebook” in which Dylan began composing the lyrics that became Blood on the Tracks, released in 1975. Beginning Oct. 8, the “blue notebook” will be accompanied by additional material from the era, including items recently donated to the archive by musician Kevin Odegard. One of the Minnesota-based musicians who backed Dylan on recording sessions for Blood on the Tracks, Odegard donated the Martin acoustic guitar he played on “Tangled Up in Blue” to the archive, among many other items related to those sessions. “Playing on ‘Tangled Up in Blue’ was the greatest thrill of my career,” said Odegard, who wrote A Simple Twist of Fate: Bob Dylan and the Making of Blood on the Tracks with rock journalist Andy Gill.

Washington High School parade processes along Greenwood Avenue in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Greenwood Cultural Center NEWS IN BRIEF Unearthing the True Toll of the Tulsa Race Massacre With the 99th anniversary at hand, a community works with archaeologists to answer longstanding questions about a brutal tragedy. By Megan I. Gannon 22 MAY 2020 https://www.sapiens.org/news/tulsa-race-massacre/ 1/6 10/22/2020 Unearthing the True Toll of the Tulsa Race Massacre - SAPIENS MEGAN I. GANNON is a journalist based in Berlin, Germany. ust north of downtown Tulsa, Oklahoma, Greenwood once had one of the most successful African American commercial districts in the country. By 1921, it was home to numerous black-owned businesses— J beauty shops, grocery stores, restaurants, and the oces of lawyers, realtors, and doctors. Residents caught silent lms and musical performances at the Dreamland Theater. They could choose between two neighborhood newspapers. Greenwood oered a place to get bootleg liquor or attend church services. Although many people lived in the district’s spare wooden homes along unpaved streets, enough wealthy African American entrepreneurs called Greenwood home that it earned the nickname “Black Wall Street.” All of that changed on the night of May 31, 1921. White mobs, armed with shotguns and torches, terrorized Greenwood in a horric expression of racial violence. The attackers killed an unknown number as they reduced a vital neighborhood to ashes.
