Florida Civil Rights Oral History Project

This collection includes interviews with several of Florida's civil rights leaders who were active at the height of the civil rights movement in the United States and in Florida during the 1950s and 1960s. The personal narratives provide details about local, regional, and national civil rights issues. Interviews were conducted by researchers at the University of South Florida and other Florida universities. The Florida Civil Rights Oral History Project is an open collection, to which more content may be added over time.
