Current scholarship recipients Amarion Penny and Keyon’Dre Penny are the great-grandchildren of Lessie Benningfield Randle, one of the last two known living survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre. They said they remember being the first ones in their classes to know about the massacre because of stories they heard from their great-grandmother.
