"I have lived through the massacre every day. I cannot forget this history, even if our nation does. Viola Ford Fletcher's memoir, "Don't Let Them Bury My Story," vividly describes how the Tulsa Massacre shaped her life for the rest of her life. As the most seasoned survivor and last living observer of the grievous situation that transpired in 1921, she imparts her declaration to strong clearness. Mother Fletcher takes us on a journey through a lifetime of pain and perseverance, from the terror of her childhood when she fled the burning streets of Greenwood when she was seven years old to her current role as a 109-year-old family matriarch seeking justice for the affected families. Her inspiring story serves as a potent reminder that some wounds never completely heal and that we should never forget the lessons we've learned throughout our history.
