First Coast Connect: The Blacksonville 100

The history of Jacksonville is curated and celebrated through the works of 100 seminal Black leaders in a Jacksonville Today feature, the Blacksonville 100, compiled for the centennial of Negro History Week. Whether they spent their entire lives on the First Coast or touched it before they moved on, the list ranges from Civil Rights heroes like A. Philip Randolph to lions of literature like Zora Neale Hurston and educators like Johnnetta Betch Cole. We talk to the reporter behind the story as well as three local historians about the legacy and impact of these community leaders. Guests: Will Brown, reporter for Jacksonville Today Jerry Urso, historian, writer and archival researcher Adonnica Toler, museum director, Eartha M. M.
