On June 1st, the official Day of Observance for the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, Mayor Monroe Nichols — Tulsa’s first Black mayor — will unveil a “road to repair” plan for survivors and descendants of the massacre.
For 104 years, Tulsa’s Black community has carried the weight of devastation, loss, and systemic exclusion. From the destruction of Black Wall Street to the erasure of its history, the wounds run deep.
Mayor Nichols’ upcoming plan marks a pivotal moment — a chance to move beyond acknowledgment and symbolism toward real action that delivers meaningful change for survivors and descendants. ✊🏾
Together, Tulsans are honoring the resilience of survivors like Viola Ford Fletcher and Lessie Benningfield Randle, and all the descendants who are still impacted by the massacre today.
🌿 Rising from the ashes of 1921, Tulsans are building the future they’ve long dreamed of and deserve — a future that will help them collectively heal from the pains of the past.
