  • Gender Identity and Expression in Jacksonville's Existing
    Jacksonville Coalition for Equality Business Leaders Sign on Statement: As a Jacksonville business owner, I am writing to ask you to support the inclusion of sexual orientation and gender identity and expression in Jacksonville’s existing non-discrimination ordinance (HRO). All hardworking people in our community should have the chance to earn a living and provide for themselves and their families. No one should live in fear that they can be fired from a job or be denied housing or basic services because of who they love or how they identify. I believe that all people should be judged on their merits and not on personal bias or stereotypes. It’s time for Jacksonville to join cities like Atlantic Beach and local companies like Florida Blue, Baptist Health, Deutsche Bank, Acosta, Winn-Dixie, CSX Transportation, Carnival, Haskell, UNF and Wells Fargo, in their support of prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity and expression in the areas of employment, housing, and public accommodation.

  • The Rhetoric of Public Memory in Urban Park Revitalization in 20Th Century Jacksonville, Florida
    THE RHETORIC OF PUBLIC MEMORY IN URBAN PARK REVITALIZATION IN 20TH CENTURY JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA by MARY CATHERINE KELLEY B.A. Western Michigan University, 2006 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History in the College of Arts and Humanities at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Spring Term 2016 © 2016 Mary Catherine Kelley ii ABSTRACT In recent decades the study human geography has become an increasingly enlightening mode of analysis in the historian’s repertoire. One area in which this method has proved insightful is in the exploration of the various ways that interpretations of the past in public places shape the public consciousness. Works on this topic have primarily been broad studies that look at public representations of the past regionally, nationally, or even globally. This study seeks to provide a more nuanced perspective on the complex ways in which public memory and place are created, and continually shaped, through a case study which takes an in-depth look at this process in one locale. This comparative analysis of Jacksonville, Florida’s Hemming and Memorial Parks throughout the twentieth century explores how monuments, commemorative events, and historical discourses act as rhetorical devices which promote partisan ideologies within public parks, which shape the public perception of the both the past and the present. In particular, this study explores the revitalization campaigns of Hemming and Memorial Parks in the last quarter of the century to demonstrate how the rhetoric of public memory has been used strategically to recreate the public perception of each park in an effort to control access to and behavior within each park.
