History
The Black Wall Street Times was founded in 2017 by Nehemiah Frank. The paper is named after the historically Black Greenwood District, Tulsa, which is also known as "Black Wall Street." According to NPR, the paper focuses on racial equity issues in Tulsa and seeks to hold public officials accountable.

In 2021, the paper called for Governor Kevin Stitt to resign from the Tulsa Race Massacre Commission for signing HB 1775, a bill which allegedly barred critical race theory.

In 2023, the Oklahoma State Department of Education banned the paper from interviews with Ryan Walters. The ban was due to Nehemiah Frank calling Walter "trash," a "klansman," and a "Nazi" on the social media platform X.
