Johnson is quoted in the linked article.

There are several sources in Google for him. I used Tulsa People Oct 2019

ETA---There's much more info about Johnson at The Oklahoma Eagle Aug 2018

That long article, while discussing Johnson's life in Tulsa, has a great deal of info about the difficult lives of blacks living in North Tulsa

The newspaper The Oklahoma Eagle was started in 1936 by a man who bought the name,etc, of the Oklahoma Star. That was the paper for the Greenwood area. Its building was bombed and set on fire during the Massacre
