"A New Social Awakening": James Hudson, Florida A. & M. University's Religious Life Program, And The 1956 Tallahassee Bus Boycott, Larry O. Rivers Jun 2022

"A New Social Awakening": James Hudson, Florida A. & M. University's Religious Life Program, And The 1956 Tallahassee Bus Boycott, Larry O. Rivers

Florida Historical Quarterly

On May 28, 1956, an event occurred on the Tallahassee campus of Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU) that fused an educator and religious leader, his teachings on nonviolence, a detestable act of racial discrimination, and the passion of well-prepared university students into a crusade for social change.

Introduction: 500 Years Of Florida History-The Twentieth Century, Connie L. Lester Jun 2022

Introduction: 500 Years Of Florida History-The Twentieth Century, Connie L. Lester

Florida Historical Quarterly

This is the last of the special issues devoted to the celebration of Florida's 500 Years of History. Launched in 2013 in conjunction with the state's commemoration of the landing of Juan Ponce de Leon on the peninsula, the Florida Historical Quarterly editors proposed a multi-year, multi-issue endeavor to capture a snapshot of Florida history at the second decade of the twenty-first century. As conceived the project called for 6 special issues, one each for the 16th, 17th, 18th, and 20th centuries and two for the long 19th century (1800-1920). At completion, the special issues included the work of 31 …

The Evolving Suffrage Militancy Of Mary Nolan, Judith Pouche Jun 2022

The Evolving Suffrage Militancy Of Mary Nolan, Judith Pouche

Florida Historical Quarterly

Petite, frail, physically impaired, and seventy-three years old, Mary Nolan could easily be underestimated by anyone foolish enough to equate physical vigor with mental strength. On November 14, 1917, several men brutalized the Jacksonville grandmother as she endured what suffragists would soon call the "Night of Terror" in a Virginia prison. One guard had told her, "I'll take you and handle you, and you'll be sorry you made me." Nolan recalled: "A man sprang at me, and caught me by the shoulder. ... I was jerked down the steps and away into the dark ... [,and later] they pushed me …

The Right To Vote And The Long Nineteenth Century In Florida, Robert Cassanello Jun 2022

The Right To Vote And The Long Nineteenth Century In Florida, Robert Cassanello

Florida Historical Quarterly

These special issues are meant to reflect on the quincentennial history of Ponce de Leon's landing on the shores of the Florida peninsula and as historians we are challenged to understand and come to terms with the consequence of those actions. The editors of the Florida Historical Quarterly have asked the contributors to explore Florida's past through the lens of a century long view. The nineteenth century presents such a unique challenge for these types of historical reflections because so much by way of technology, communication, transportation, societal relations transformed more rapidly than any previously recorded century. The world was …


African Americans In Florida, 1870-1920: A Historiographical Essay, David H. Jackson Jun 2022

African Americans In Florida, 1870-1920: A Historiographical Essay, David H. Jackson

Florida Historical Quarterly

The history of African Americans in Florida is a subject area that remains under-researched. While historians have generally done a commendable job examining the topic for the last fifty years or so, Florida still lags behind other southern states when it comes to scholarship on its African American populace. Thus, this essay seeks to review some of the scholarly works that have been published on the subject of African Americans in Florida from 1870 to 1920. It is arranged thematically with scholarship addressing major topics such as: Reconstruction, racial relations, racial violence, politics, religion, urban history, labor, black women, education, …

Special Issue Introduction By Fhq Editors, Connie L. Lester

Florida Historical Quarterly

In the planning of the 500 Years of Florida History series, we decided that the complexity of the nineteenth century was too challenging for a single issue. As a result, we divided the century at the end of Reconstruction and expanded it to 1920 and the extension of suffrage to American women with the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The seven articles that focused on the earlier decades of nineteenth century appeared in the winter issue of Volume 94 and were edited by James Cusick. Those articles covered a range of topics from literature to Native …

Developing A Scale To Measure Destination Gender, Tingting Zhang Jun 2022

Developing A Scale To Measure Destination Gender, Tingting Zhang

Rosen Research Review

Whether they depict the rugged landscape of the American West or the seductive charm of a South Asian beach, photographs and their accompanying text are powerful drivers of tourism demand. But what lies behind our response to such tourism tropes? Rosen College researchers have produced a new study which reappraises destination marketing through a gender-based lens. Led by Dr. Tingting Zhang, the study has developed and validated a cross-cultural scale to determine ‘destination gender’, or whether a location should be thought of as having masculine or feminine gender traits and appeal.

The Gulf Coast Fish Cheer: Radicalism And The Underground Press In Pensacola, Florida, 1970-1971, Christopher Satterwhite May 2022

The Gulf Coast Fish Cheer: Radicalism And The Underground Press In Pensacola, Florida, 1970-1971, Christopher Satterwhite

Florida Historical Quarterly

By the end of the 1960s the underground press in the United States had grown exponentially from five publications in 1965 to hundreds by the end of the decade with a "combined readership that stretched into the millions."1 As the underground press movement flourished throughout the counterculture, this new radical media spread from college campuses to military towns across the country. By 1971, Pensacola, Florida, had joined a growing number of American cities with an underground newspaper. That paper was the Gulf Coast Fish Cheer.


Losing Lincoln: Black Educators, Historical Memory, And The Desegregation Of Lincoln High School In Gainesville, Florida, Kathryn Palmer May 2022

Losing Lincoln: Black Educators, Historical Memory, And The Desegregation Of Lincoln High School In Gainesville, Florida, Kathryn Palmer

Florida Historical Quarterly

In 1979 Nat Tillman, a Lincoln High School (LHS) alumnus and one of the Gainesville Sun's first African-American columnists, penned an article advocating for the preservation of Lincoln's history as a "pioneer of black education in Florida." Tillman interviewed Eric Roberts, a member of Lincoln's first graduating class of 1925 about why Lincoln's history as a historically black high school "deserved to be preserved." Like many of Florida's black high schools closed during school integration efforts of the late 1960s and early 70s, Lincoln's roots stretch back to Reconstruction. However, as Florida's second accredited black high school, Roberts praised the …


To Conquer The Coast: Pensacola, The Gulf Of Mexico, And The Construction Of American Imperialism, 1820-1848, Maria Angela Diaz May 2022

To Conquer The Coast: Pensacola, The Gulf Of Mexico, And The Construction Of American Imperialism, 1820-1848, Maria Angela Diaz

Florida Historical Quarterly

Americans' dreams of empire appeared to become reality when the United States gained control over Florida in 1821. Yet although the U.S. controlled a significant portion of the Gulf Coast, the nation remained one among many foreign powers vying for dominance in the region, a fact that raised concerns about future expansion in the minds of many. As of 1821 the U.S. shared the coastline with a newly independent Mexico. At the same time, France, Britain, and Spain remained active in both the Gulf and the Caribbean.1 The combination of new republics and old colonial powers shaped the nature of …

The Hammer, The Sickle, And The Phosphate Rock: The 1974 Political Controversy Over Florida Phosphate Shipments To The Soviet Union, Brad Massey May 2022

The Hammer, The Sickle, And The Phosphate Rock: The 1974 Political Controversy Over Florida Phosphate Shipments To The Soviet Union, Brad Massey

Florida Historical Quarterly

The price of Florida phosphate rock skyrocketed in the 1970s. Corporate profits soared as well, peaking in 1980-1981 as phosphate-based fertilizers were applied to more and more farms throughout the world. During this boom decade, Florida phosphate companies acquired new lands for strip-mining operations, invested billions in new industrial infrastructure and employee payrolls, and created thousands of jobs. Over 90% of the phosphate rock extracted from the Florida earth was used for fertilizer production, which industry proponents argued was a noble global industrial cause. Florida mining boosters testified that phosphate fertilizers increased farm yields, staving off starvation and food scarcity …

New Deal Historic Preservation For Key West, Matthew G. Hyland May 2022

New Deal Historic Preservation For Key West, Matthew G. Hyland

Florida Historical Quarterly

Preservation of local history and architecture played a fundamental role in economic revitalization of Key West during the Great Depression. With the assistance, and upon the insistence, of the people of Key West, the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA), along with the Civil Works Administration (CWA), the Historic American Building Survey (HABS), and the Works Progress Administration (WPA), preserved and developed Key West's historic resources into tourist attractions, thus forming the base for today's service economy in the Florida Keys. In so doing and scarcely less important, they would engender a new dimension in historic preservation practice and awareness of …


Pensacola's Cast Iron Architecture, Cynthia Catellier May 2022

Pensacola's Cast Iron Architecture, Cynthia Catellier

Florida Historical Quarterly

Late at night on July 5, 1880, while most of Pensacola's citizens were sleeping, flames erupted from Cheap John's Clothing Store. The flames became a blaze that eventually destroyed most of the buildings west of the public square. Five months later, an even more devastating fire consumed Pensacola's downtown business district. On December 11, over 100 buildings burned, including Pensacola's two newspaper buildings, every drug store, stationery store, and even the telegraph offices. As the year 1880 ended, over ninety percent of Pensacola's commercial structures had succumbed to flames, and antebellum Pensacola lay in ruins.1

Introduction: A Journal Of John Forbes, Part 2: The Continuation Of A Journal Of Talks With The Four Nations Assembled At Hickory Ground, May & June 1803, Kathryn H. Braund

Florida Historical Quarterly

Near the end of May 1803, William Augustus Bowles, the dashing adventurer and agent provocateur, whose schemes had ruffled the Creek Country and Gulf Coast for two decades, stood with arms bound on a small island in the Tallapoosa River.1 Shortly, newly-forged handcuffs replaced the rope and represented a subtle and effective symbol of the outlaw's transfer of custody from Indian to European control. Once in Spanish hands, Bowles floated peacefully away from the center of Creek power toward his ultimate demise in Havana's El Morro prison in December 1805. The story of Bowles's misadventures in the tumultuous post-Revolutionary South …
