It’s an essential question that artist and educator Dr. Leslee Howes Stradford poses when speaking about her work: “If you’ve been lied to about your history, or it’s never been taught at all, how are you supposed to know it?”
That is the underlying premise that informs one project in particular that she started working on more than a decade ago.
“The Night Tulsa Died: The Black Wall Street Massacre of 1921” is a series of digital collages, on silk, that tell the story of the Tulsa Massacre, the 100th anniversary of which falls on May 30.
