Tulsa Booker T. Washington, 1950 parade

Evidence note · high confidence

What the evidence supports

November 16, 1950 Eagle reports Booker T. Washington band and Black Legion members missing from Tulsa Armistice parade; nearby account describes Legion protest over recurring rear placement.

Limits and open questions

Evidence of absence, not a completed band parade appearance. Exact school withdrawal decision/reason needs full article continuation; do not attribute all Legion statements automatically to school officials.

Confidence detail: high for absence. Evidence notes are not a count of distinct ensembles.
