9:20Now PlayingVice President Kamala Harris witnessed the dual citizenship ceremony at the Ghana’s embassy in D.C. of two centenarians 108 year old Viola Fletcher and 102 year old Hughes Uncle Red Van Ellis. They are the two survivors of the Black Wall Street massacre in Tulsa Oklahoma.
Damario Solomon Simmons, the attorney for the brother and sister pair Damario told theGrio the pair traveled last year to Ghana and loved it so much that they are in the nation's Capitol City to accept the dual citizenship as they are still looking for the restoration and repair of what Tulsa’s White community did over 100 years ago. The 40 acres of Black wealth in that Historic Black Community of Greenwood was destroyed due to racism.
