Tulsa Black Mental Health Alliance

02/28/2026

Black mental wellness deserves visibility — not just for a day, but every day.

This Black History Month, we’ve recognized diverse voices and experiences while underscoring that mental health equity is essential to overall health, safety, and opportunity.

Today, on , we continue to elevate conversations about stigma, center culturally responsive care, and reaffirm the importance of community-based solutions.

Black mental wellness is shaped by strength, resilience, advocacy, and collective care. It also requires access, investment, and systems change.

As Black History Month comes to a close, our commitment continues.

🕊️ Honoring the Life and Legacy of Mother Viola Fletcher

Today, we pause to honor the extraordinary life of Mother Viola Fletcher, one of the last known survivors of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, who transitioned at the age of 111.

Mother Fletcher was more than a witness to history — she was a vessel of truth, resilience, and unwavering dignity. Her voice carried the weight of a community’s pain and the power of its perseverance. Through her testimony, advocacy, and presence, she ensured that Tulsa — and the world — never forgot the injustices endured in Greenwood.

As the Tulsa Black Mental Health Alliance, we recognize the profound emotional and intergenerational impact of the massacre, and we honor Mother Fletcher for standing as a bridge between past and present. Her courage reminds us why healing, justice, and mental wellness remain essential pillars of our work in North Tulsa and beyond.

We extend our deepest condolences to her family, loved ones, and all who have been touched by her legacy. May we continue the work she carried so boldly — creating space for truth, healing, and collective resilience.

Rest in power, Mother Fletcher. Your light and legacy live on. 🕊️🖤
