Description

In 1920s Oklahoma, Native Americans were treated as second class citizens. In the book and movie, Killers of the Flower Moon, we learn the true story about how members of the Osage Tribe were cheated out of their wealth and murdered for their oil rights. In this presentation we will watch film clips of the movie and discuss laws that discriminated against the Osage tribe.

Further, we will examine how William Hale schemed to murder members of the tribe and steal their wealth.

Finally, we will examine the work of several attorneys who led the fight against this racial persecution and helped to convict Mr. Hale of murder. The goal of the presentation is for attorneys to understand that as members of the legal profession we are in a unique position to prevent bias and discrimination.
