Hello,
I have to do the discussion on Tulsa Massacre. When I share my thoughts I have to be concerned about “Collective behavior and Collective Action” which is my course, so you have to be known about the theories of this Course “Contagion theory, Convergence theory, Emergent-norm theory, Value-added theory, and Complex Adaptive Systems theory”

Professor: “There has been little broad discussion of collective slayings of blacks and
other minorities–with the possible exception of Native Americans. Why?
Does your text offer any insights that you can find? (Hint: you may have to search
through the chapters to find any relevant discussion.)
I am intrigued. Frankly, I am a bit hesitant to search the text for fear of what i might or
might not find on the issue. How about you?
You make some very good points. Can you say a bit more about your second
paragraph? In particular, what aspects of the two theories seem to relate to what
actions occurring during the massacre?
