Civil Rights | Desegregation | Harry T. Moore | Mary McLeod Bethune | Race Relations

 

Unique resources dealing with desegregation, race relations, and civil rights in Florida, particularly Central Florida, have been identified so that university students and persons within local communities can trace the history of civil rights in this geographic area, realize where Floridians have stood on diversity issues in the past, have some knowledge of where we are at present and have dreams of where we hope to be in the future. Here are some examples, arranged by topic:
