Editor's Notes
- Civil rights leader W.E.B. Du Bois expressed resentment at the continuing racism.
- In at least one respect, however, Florida remained a southern backwater. Segregation was the law and custom of the land. Vestiges of the Old South appeared everywhere. State holidays included January 19, Robert E. Lee’s birthday, and April 26, Confederate Memorial Day. To the state’s black residents, Florida’s culture and politics mirrored the South: a legacy of slavery secession, Reconstruction, Jim Crow traditions, white primaries, and a frightening level of interracial violence and lynching. Before 1940, Florida - not Mississippi or Alabama - led the South in per capita lynchings. The lynchings occurred not only in Perry, Newberry, and Madison, but also in Inverness, St. Petersburg, and DeLand. The 1935 state census under scored florida’s heritage: three-fourths of the state’s residents were born in Florida or the South. Not a single classroom in Florida was integrated in 1940. And when the 1939 Florida legislature convened, not a single black, woman, or Republican took a seat.
- Antiforeign attitudes after WWI (Red Scare) encouraged a revival of the Ku Klux Klan. The first organization, active during Reconstruction, had died out in the late 1800s. A reorganized Klan, formed in 1915 and grew slowly until 1920. In that year, it added 100,000 members. The Klan of the 1920s targeted not only African American but also Catholics, Jews, and immigrants. To the Klan, the only true Americans were white, Protestant, and American-born.
- On January 1, 1923 a massacre was carried out in the small, predominantly black town of Rosewood in Central Florida. The massacre was instigated by the rumor that a white woman, Fanny Taylor, had been sexually assaulted by a black man in her home in a nearby community. A group of white men, believing this rapist to be a recently escaped convict named Jesse Hunter who was hiding in Rosewood, assembled to capture this man. - See more at: http://www.blackpast.org/aah/rosewood-massacre-1923#sthash.L8gBnPWS.dpuf
- Born on July 10, 1875, in Mayesville, South Carolina, Mary McLeod Bethune was a child of former slaves. She graduated from the Scotia Seminary for Girls in 1893. Believing that education provided the key to racial advancement, Bethune founded the Daytona Normal and Industrial Institute in 1904, which later became Bethune-Cookman College. She founded the National Council of Negro Women in 1935. Bethune died in 1955.
- On the eve of America's entrance into World War II, she joined a panel discussion on NBC radio's weekly public affairs broadcast of "America's Town Meeting of the Air." The panelists addressed the question, What does American democracy mean to me? With her Victorian elocution and a thunderous tone, Bethune reminded her listeners that African Americans had always been willing to die for American democracy but were still shut out from its promise of freedom.
- The Federal Writers' Project was created in 1935 in an effort to find work suitable for the nation's thousands of unemployed writers, historians, librarians, and teachers. Part of Federal One, the name given to the four arts programs of the Works Progress Administration (along with Theater, Music and Art), the Writer's Project became both a lightning rod for criticism of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal programs and an ambitious attempt to harness the nation's idle writing and research talents to document America's cultural and social history. The WPA program in the arts led to the creation of the National Foundation for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
- Hurston’s first assignment working with the Florida Federal Writer’s Propject was to collect African-American folklore from communities around the state. The Florida staff had already been working on a state guidebook. Hurston recorded a number of African-American folk stories and traditions, as well as descriptions of towns with rich African-American histories, including Ocoee, Eatonville, Pahokee and Goldsboro. A companion to the guidebook, titled The Florida Negro, included chapters on African-American folklore, music, art and literature. Hurston’s essays are invaluable for the perspective they provide in understanding African-American communities and traditions during the Depression.
- Born on June 17, 1871 in Jacksonville, Florida, James Weldon Johnson was encouraged by his mother to study English literature and the European musical tradition. He attended Atlanta University, with the hope that the education he received there could be used to further the interests of African Americans. After graduating, he took a job as a high school principal in Jacksonville. In 1900, he wrote the song “Lift Every Voice and Sing” on the occasion of Lincoln’s birthday; the song was immensely popular in the black community, and became known as the “Negro National Anthem.”
- A magazine from the Florida Humanities Council, "Florida at War" tells the story of great heroes and of the heroic efforts of ordinary people. It describes the memory and the bonds of history we share as Floridians. There are 17 articles. This will be posted as a resource for this workshop. You also have a text from FCIT.
- PT boats played an important role in patrolling Axis controlled waters and attacking enemy ships during WWII. In 1938, the US Navy put out an invitation for ship builders to design an inexpensive, fast and maneuverable Patrol Torpedo boat. After a series of designs and trials, the Navy awarded contracts to Elco Naval Division, Higgins Industries and the Huckins Yacht Corporation to begin production of their respective PT boat designs.

- Built in 1926 and joining the Lakeland Terrace Hotel as Lakeland's only two high rise buildings at the time, The Florida, as it was originally known, reflected the unbridled optimism of boom time Florida. Unfortunately for the hotel's developers, the boom was about to go bust. The renamed New Florida opened on September 26, 1926 even though its interior was not yet finished. After its brief opening, the collapse of the Florida land boom caused the New Florida to close its doors. And the Great Depression kept them closed until 1935, when the Order of Railway Conductors purchased and opened the hotel. It changed hands a number of times over the years and was converted to a senior living facility in 1962. It was renamed the Regency Towers in 1981. The building closed in 1996 and was purchased by the city in 2001. It was sold to a developer who converted the building to market rate apartments and reopened the building as the Lake Mirror Tower Apartments in 2005.
- Pilot David S. Breece trained at Dorr Field, named after pilot Stephen Dorr Jr., which was located 11 miles east of Arcadia, Florida. It was established during WWI to support flight training operations at nearby Carlstrom Field and subsequently closed at the end of the war. Dorr Field was reopened in 1942 by John Riddle and operated as a civilian contract school for training Army aviators. It was one square mile and had no runways. After WWII, both Carlstrom and Dorr Fields were sold to the State of Florida for a dollar. The site of Dorr Field was later reused as the site of the minimum security DeSoto County Correctional Institution. Training exercises in Miami
- The Double Victory Campaign began in earnest in 1942. On January 31,1942 The Pittsburgh Courier featured a letter to the editor from James G. Thompson, a cafeteria worker in Wichita Kansas. Thompson expressed his patriotism, but was confounded by the inequality, discrimination, and oppression he experienced daily in the United States. He was willing to serve his country, and even die in that service. The juxtaposition between Thompson’s loyalty to his country and the country’s disloyalty to him, provoked him to pose the questions: “Should I sacrifice my life to live half American?” In response to this conundrum, Thompson proposed a new campaign.
