About the Film

OETA's documentary film Tulsa Race Massacre: 100 Years Later covers the rise of Black Wall Street, the devastation wrought during the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre and the dedication of contemporary creatives to build a new legacy.

Exploring the events that took place in Tulsa on the Greenwood District (“Black Wall Street”) on May 31, 1921, through media is an opportunity for families and communities to engage in historical thinking, art, and media-literacy building activities. OETA’s documentary of the unfortunate events provides historical context, firsthand accounts, along with other sources that speak to what Greenwood was at its height and what it is today – striving to recreate that sense of economic prosperity and empowerment. Throughout the documentary, art from the various art worlds is woven in to interpret the events of the past and to inspire a more inclusive and equitable future for all Oklahomans.

About the Event

Following the film screening, there will be a live discussion panel with the Center for Public Life at OSU-Tulsa Equity Fellows.

This event is FREE and open to the public. Register at bit.ly/cplfilmscreening.
