Description

Roscoe is a story about two men, generations apart, who become unlikely friends. Set in Tulsa, Oklahoma in the late '90s, Roscoe is about a reading tutor who becomes the student when learns about a terrible event in Oklahoma history. North Tulsa is not a place where a middle class, white teenager is usually found. Mark goes there to help Roscoe, a 97-year-old black man, learn to read. As Mark is teaching Roscoe how to read, Roscoe teaches him about the Tulsa Race Riot, one of the worst race riots in American history that few people outside of North Tulsa had ever heard about. Mark even faces racism himself when he ventures into a neighborhood he is not welcome in.
