TULSA, Okla. — Lessie Benningfield Randle, known as ‘Mother Randle’ and one of the two last living survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, turned 110-years-old on Nov. 10. 

Family, friends, and leaders joined her to celebrate the milestone at the restaurant Fixins in downtown Tulsa. 

In early November, a flag flew over the U.S. Capitol in honor of the two remaining massacre survivors, at the direction of the U.S. Congressman Al Green. 

Green came to Tulsa to present Mother Randle with something special at the event. 

Born in 1914, Mother Randle was a young girl when the Black community of Greenwood, also known as ‘Black Wall Street,’ was destroyed in an act of racial violence. 

Along with 110-year-old Viola Fletcher, the oldest of the two survivors, Mother Randle’s push for justice has been crucial to increasing national awareness of the Tulsa Race Massacre. 

The survivors continue to fight for reparations following the Oklahoma Supreme
