Written by Site Hub on May 16, 2021
John Legend will be the headliner at the 100th anniversary remembrance ceremony of the Tulsa Race Massacre. The ceremony is known as the Remember & Rise event.
Commission director for the event, Phil Armstrong stated:
“When we sat back and asked ourselves who could really elevate this, who could take it to the next level, John Legend was obviously a great fit.”
The commission was created to educate people on the attack by a white mob that killed nearly 300 people. Out of the 300 most of the people were Black.
The Remember & Rise event will be held May 31st at the ONEOK Field.
