Today is March 1st the first day of Women’s History Month & we will be celebrating our Queens, the heart and soul of our community. All month long we will be highlighting the women of Historic Town of Eatonville!

Zora spoke about Eatonville’s uniqueness and it being a special place full of rich folklores which are oral traditions and tales passed on from generations. This is still the essence of Eatonville today these same traditions live on and it’s the reason we are called a walking museum.

The Forklore Village shirts are now available at www.1887first.com/shop link in our bio ⬆️⬆️

A year ago today we made history! We also showed a sense of unity and community that has been absent for years.

Imagine if we would have listened to the many people who doubted us including our government leaders when they told us it was nothing we could do and we didn’t know what we were talking about!

Politics are controlled by us the people. The government works for us and never forget that. We are 1887 First!

This is the sign located on a fence that wraps around the in Eatonville. The land was donated to the town over 100 years ago and is now owned by the Orange County Public Schools System. The land is now going through a legal battle and Eatonville residents are speaking up and out to get their land back.

I spoke with the founder of a local organization in Eatonville, known as 1887 First who are now looking for solutions that will protect Eatonville's historic land.

Swipe Left to learn how the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 negatively affected our communities.

Understanding the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1956 is crucial to address systemic racism today. See how the highways negatively impacted Eatonville & many other black communities.
