Beginning in the evening and continuing through the next day, White mobs attack Blacks in the wealthy Greenwood district of Tulsa, Oklahoma. People are shot and buildings are set on fire, destroying 35 blocks of what was then the wealthiest Black community in the U.S., referred to as Black Wall Street.  More than 800 people are injured, 183 of them seriously. Although "only" 29 deaths could be confirmed, some estimates give the true number of deaths as 75 to 300. The event becomes known as the Tulsa Race Massacre. The rioting and massacre are touched off by a newspaper report of a Black man allegedly assaulting a White woman in an elevator.

The minor-league Baltimore Orioles of the International League have their 27-game winning streak broken as they lose to the Buffalo Bisons, 19-8, at home in the second game of a doubleheader in front of 13,358 spectators. Their 27-game winning streak ties as the longest in professional baseball history up to this point. The 1902 Corsicana (Texas) Oil Citys also won 27 games in a row. (The record would then be broken by the Salt Lake City Trappers of the Pioneer League, who win 29 consecutive games in 1987.) The 1921 Orioles win 119 games while losing only 47 games.
