Florida history, especially in
the past 100 years, shows the expansion of civil rights
to protect all of Florida's citizens, regardless of gender
or race. The Florida Hertiage Collection contains works
on desegregation and integration, feminism, McCarthyism
and more. The information contained in these documents reveals
a great deal about the effects of bigotry and hatred, and
how the people of Florida have risen above such destructive
feelings.
