Show moreThis study specifically aims to illuminate the black attorneys’ experience in post—Civil War Florida by focusing on the complex careers of four black lawyers who began their careers during Reconstruction. The discussion will familiarize the reader with the immense obstacles that deterred African American attorneys from gaining prominence and the struggles endured by black lawyers throughout the South. As true regionally, the majority of Florida's legal professionals could not afford to practice law exclusively and had to pursue other careers as their main source of income. Politics often emerged as the career of choice for black lawyers. As public figures these men accomplished remarkable feats and flourished as leaders of the black community.8 This essay, in a larger sense, attempts to provide fresh and helpful information concerning the black 7 See generally, Foner, Freedom ’s Lawmakers; Brown, Florida ’s ‘Black Public Oflicialsg Richardson, Negro in the Reconstruction of Florida. 8 See generally, Richardson, The Negro in the Reconstruction of Florida; Woodson, The Negro Professional and the Community; Ward, Black Physicians in the Jim Crow South; Shofner, Nor Is It Over Yet.
