Rosa Skinner came to Oklahoma with her family in 1900 seeking a better life. His father recalls wanting to relocate to a city where there were churches and schools for his children. The desire for education and a spiritual turned into holocaust and destruction during the 1921 Massacre. She remembers seeing a baby in a shoebox being buried. People were rounded up and detained by the Oklahoma National Guard in detention centers.

"It was such a terrible time, I will never forget it." - Rosa Davis Skinner
