Before They Die

Cedar Lane Cinemas
Teaneck, NJ


Directed and produced by Reginald Turner
90 minutes
Discussion with director to follow screening
Screening sponsored by Bergen County Links

Before there was 9/11, before there was Oklahoma City, before there was the internment of the Japanese Americans during World Word II, before there was Rosewood (Florida), there was the 1921 Tulsa Race Riot. This documentary, produced in conjunction with Tulsa Virtual Media Partners, LLC, tells the story of the survivors of the 1921 Tusla Race Riot in their quest for justice. It follows the survivors and their legal team, headed by Professor Charles Ogletree, through the court system all the way to the Supreme Court and on to the U.S. Congress. The film is the cornerstone of an effort to generate knowledge of this hidden historical event, and to stimulate Americans to contribute online to provide compensation directly to the victims.
