Today’s track of the day is by self-proclaimed “New Loud Ghent Women” ERIIS, a Belgian band featuring members of Reena Riot, Down The Lees and Nightwitches). Single ‘Tulsa’ is out today on Off White House Records, with 100% of the proceeds going to the Belgian Network for Black Lives.
The song’s theme is the Tulsa Race Riots of 1921, as told from the perspective of a resident who shelters a black family during the massacre.
“They were cold and desolate, I saw them bathe in blood, bathe in blood blishers. Nowhere to go, I gave them bread and sheets to rest. Praying on their beds.”
