There is another film about the riot that I rented from a public library many years ago. Sorry, I do not know the name of the film. Also, the History Channel did a piece called "The Night Tulsa Burned" back in 1999. I'm glad this film has been produced.

My Grandmother came out of Tulsa,OK but, she never talked about the "riot", too painful I guess. "What's done in the dark, shall come to the light" How can I get a copy of the film?
