Florida Historical Quarterly

We interviewed Professor David Jackson Jr. from Florida A & M University, about his article “Industrious, Thrifty and Ambitious”: Jacksonville’s African American Businesspeople during the Jim Crow Era,” which appeared in this issue. It is about the business class of Jacksonville during the Jim Crow Era. We also interviewed Tina Bucuvalas, who was the 2012 Jillian Prescott Memorial Keynote Speaker at the Florida Historical Society Meeting and Symposium in Tampa.
