Next weekend marks 100 years since the Tulsa Race Massacre. 

Commemoration events are scheduled across several days and a local floral shop is raising money to help provide volunteers and supplies to create large-scale installations. 

"We are grateful the truth is being unearthed and some roots are being rattled," said The Wild Mother Owner, Leah Palmer. "I believe that this art is just a tiny sliver of the medicine that the community in Greenwood deserves."

The sisters that own the shop need $10,000 more dollars to make their vision a reality.
