  • About Kathryn Fentress
    F O R I M M E D I A T E R E L E A S E A Few Tickets Left For Freedom Trail Luncheon After a tremendous demand, there are only a few tickets left to attend the Fourth Annual ACCORD Freedom Trail Luncheon, which will take place at the Casa Monica Hotel on Friday July 2 at 11:30 AM. The date marks the 46th Anniversary of the signing of the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the luncheon honors the local heroes and sheroes of the St. Augustine Movement led by Dr. Robert B. Hayling, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference. United States Congressman John Lewis of Atlanta, an original Freedom Rider (along with St. Augustinian Hank Thomas) and one of the "Big Six " leaders of the civil rights movement who spoke at the famous March on Washington in 1963 will be the keynote speaker. Dr. Kathryn Fentress, guest speaker, was labeled an ‘outside agitator’ when she came here 46 years ago, though her home was in nearby Ormond Beach. She was arrested June 11, 1964, on the steps of the Monson Motor Lodge Restaurant along with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rev. Ralph Abernathy, Rev. William England (Chaplain of Boston University), and Clyde Jenkins for seeking to be served. She spent her 20th birthday here in jail. The second Dr. Robert B. Hayling Award of Valor, sponsored by Florida State Senator Anthony Hill will be presented to Mr. Clyde Jenkins. He was a local barber beaten unmercifully in 1963 at a Ku Klux Klan rally near the modern-day Big Lots store, along with Dr.

This article covers the phase of the movement between 1954 and 1968, particularly in the South. By 1966, the emergence of the Black Power Movement, which lasted roughly from 1966 to 1975, enlarged the aims of the Civil Rights Movement to include racial dignity, economic and political self-sufficiency, and freedom from oppression by white Americans. Many of those who were active in the Civil Rights Movement, with organizations such as NAACP, SNCC, CORE and SCLC, prefer the term "Southern Freedom Movement" because the struggle was about far more than just civil rights under law; it was also about fundamental issues of freedom, respect, dignity, and economic and social equality. During the period 1955–1968, acts of nonviolent protest and civil disobedience produced crisis situations between activists and government authorities. Federal, state, and local governments, businesses, and communities often had to respond immediately to crisis situations which highlighted the inequities faced by African Americans.

Sutter From Disease to Desire: Panama and the Rise of the Caribbean Vacation by Blake Charles Scott, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2016 Acknowledgements If you are expecting a fun-filled guide to pampered leisure, then you should put this story back on the shelf. What follows may be disturbing and ruin your vacation. Facts sometimes have that affect: In 1903, W.E.B. Du Bois declared “the problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the color line.”1 Over the last one hundred years, the “color line” – with small actions and huge historical turns – has slowly eroded only to reveal equally pervasive lines of privilege and inequality. Today, it seems, the problem of the twentieth-first century is the problem of mobility. Some people can travel and change their reality, and some cannot. Some people travel for pleasure and in luxury, while others travel to survive, to escape war and poverty. The origins of this problem are old, but its sustaining ideas and practices have taken on renewed power in the modern era.

  • 1960'S Civil Rights Movement of St
    Timeline of Events 1960’s Civil Rights Movement of St. Augustine, Florida Prepared by Shirley Bryce, David Nolan, & Gwendolyn Duncan Local & National Background In Topeka, Kansas, a black third­grader named Linda Brown had to walk one mile through a railroad switchyard to get to her black elementary school, even though a white elementary school was only seven blocks away. Her father, Oliver Brown, tried to enroll her in the white elementary school, but the principal of the school refused. Brown went to the head of Topeka's branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and asked for help. The NAACP was eager to assist the Browns, as it had long wanted to challenge segregation in public schools. With Brown's complaint, it had "the right plaintiff at the right time." Other black parents joined Brown, and, in 1951, the NAACP requested an injunction that would forbid the segregation of Topeka's public schools. The U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas heard Brown's case. At the trial, the NAACP argued that segregated schools sent the message to black children that they were inferior to whites; therefore, the schools were inherently unequal. One of the expert witnesses testified that: "...if the colored children are denied the experience in school of associating with white children, who represent 90 percent of our national society in which these colored children must live, then the colored child's curriculum is being greatly curtailed. The Topeka curriculum or any school curriculum cannot be equal under segregation." The Board of Education's defense was that, because segregation in Topeka and elsewhere pervaded many other aspects of life, segregated schools simply prepared black children for the segregation they would face during adulthood.

  • Civil Rights in the Sunshine State
    THE FIGHT OVER LABOR After generations of slavery, black Floridians, like their counterparts in other southern states, recognized that the basis of wealth was their labor. They joined labor unions, sometimes in coalition with working class whites. They demanded higher wages, went on strikes, quit their jobs, and migrated to new areas for better economic opportunities. African Americans also formed schools to educate themselves and improve their prospects. At the same time, Florida's leaders saw the state's future in agriculture, timber, phosphate mining, turpentine, and tourism. Elite whites, including northern business investors, believed profitability relied on cheap black labor. They also viewed a black presence on Florida's beaches as a threat to the state's burgeoning tourism industry. Laws were passed that prohibited blacks from quitting their jobs or moving to other areas for better employment. Vagrancy and after-dark laws also limited black mobility. Turpentine, phosphate, and railway workers often were paid in company money. This currency, known as scrip, could only be spent at company stores, which charged inflated prices and kept workers in debt to the company. Other methods to control black labor in Florida and other southern states, included limiting access to voting, educational opportunities, and organizing with working whites. These restrictions were achieved through legal and extralegal means, including violence and intimidation. Still, black Floridians continued to struggle and organize for equality. ЛIM CROW In the 1830s, white actor Thomas Dartmouth Rice created a character named Jim Crow, a black clown who danced a jig, spoke in an exaggerated accent, and wore tattered clothing.
