Mother Fletcher Visits The King Center

Press Conference at Fulton Bookstore, Tulsa, OK.

During the annual Legacy Fest Ms. Fletcher, her grandson and co-author Ike Howard, along with her “baby brother” WWII Veteran Hughes Van Ellis will make the appearance to promote her upcoming memoir, “Don’t Let Them Bury My Story.” This powerful book delves into Viola’s personal journey of resilience, survival, and the enduring human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity.

“I will never forget the violence of the White mob when we left our home,” Mother Fletcher testified to Congress in 2021. “I still see Black men being shot, Black bodies lying in the street, I still smell smoke and see fire.”

Her memoir recounts her personal journey of survival, resilience, and the enduring power of the human spirit. Viola’s story serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of remembrance, understanding, and the pursuit of a better future.

“Don’t Let Them Bury My Story” sheds light on a crucial period in history and highlights the importance of remembrance, understanding, and the power of resilience. Viola Fletcher’s story serves as an inspiration for individuals of all backgrounds, encouraging us to confront the past, learn from it, and build a better future.
