For the past decade, organizers have been sharing the story of Black Wall Street as part of Black History Month.
NewsChannel 8 was told Billie Parker was the driving force behind the event.
Along with vendors, they had speakers performers and a fashion show.
Parker was very humble when we spoke with her, crediting pretty much everyone else for making it happen, but her sister wanted us to know just how much Parker gives us herself.
This year's theme was "Gifted and Black."
