This well-written book provides an excellent overview of the history of African-Americans in Florida while including the national perspective as well. Dr. Brotemarkle has penned a treasure trove of information on this subject. -- Cathy Mathias "Florida Today newspaper"

Reseña del editor:

This book includes an overview of the people, institutions, and events that shaped the establishment, growth and history of the African-American community in Orlando. We examine the creation of the neighborhood's educational centers, plases of worship, and businesses, and the irony of how desegregation inadvertently led to the decline of the community. Significant instances of racial unrest in Orlando that are often overlooked are detailed in this manuscript
