As the oldest living survivor of the 1921 Tulsa race massacre, she represents resilience and strength, having experienced the tragic events of that time when she was just seven years old. The resolution highlights her testimony before Congress on the centennial of the massacre, where she shared the profound impact it has had on her life and her ongoing efforts to preserve the legacy of the Greenwood District, also known as "Black Wall Street."

The resolution expresses the Louisiana House of Representatives' admiration for Mother Fletcher's grace, dignity, and humanitarian spirit. It recognizes her as a vital witness to history and extends heartfelt wishes for her continued health and prosperity in the years to come.
