TULSA GIRL is a story about a six year-old girl who witnessed the events of the historic Tulsa Massacre of 1921 (commonly referred to as the Tulsa Riots of 1921). Olivia loved to learn but scenes from the massacre made her afraid to go to school. However after realizing her own strength, Olivia overcame her fear and started attending school again. This story is written to inspire children to rise above their circumstances; to encourage a victorious response in the face disappointment and to shine on regardless. This story is based on true accounts of the Tulsa event as shared by Dr. Olivia J. Hooker. Dr. Hooker is a living legend; a United States Coast Guard trailblazer, a pioneering psychologist and a civil rights activist who celebrated her centennial on February 12, 2015. She has received numerous military and civic recognitions for her personal testimony of the Tulsa Massacre and for her lifelong professional and humanitarian accomplishments.
