A decades-long fight for justice and restitution came to an end on Wednesday afternoon, after the Oklahoma supreme court dismissed a lawsuit of the last two survivors of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre.
The suit, brought by Lessie Benningfield Randle and Viola Fletcher, both of whom are centenarians, sought to force the city of Tulsa, along with other defendants, to pay restitution to the two women, who were children at the time of the racist massacre.
