Description

In recognition of Black History Month, join us for a screening of Sarah's Oil. The true story of Sarah Rector, an African American born in Oklahoma Indian Territory in the early 1900s, who believes there is oil beneath the barren land she's allotted and whose faith is proven right. As greedy oil sharks close in, Sarah turns to her family, friends, and some Texas wildcatters to maintain control of her oil-rich land, eventually becoming one of the nation's first female African American millionaires — at 11 years old. Bring your family, friends, or just yourself—everyone is welcome.
