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.

Creator: Sherrie L. Farabee

Show moreThis study is a content analysis that examines how issues and events impacted news coverage in three Whig newspapers: the Florida Whig, the A Florida Sentinel and the Florida Republican. All were printed in Florida between 1848 and 1852, a time when the Whig Party led state and national government. Content analysis was chosen to track any changes in article length, article frequency, news hole, and topic prominence of articles about slavery and the 1850 Compromise. This study shows that the length and frequency of articles in the three Florida Whig newspapers increased or decreased with ﬂuctuations of Whig Party emphasis on slavery and the 1850 Compromise. it also shows slavery and the 1850 Compromise were seldom the primary topics of any article.
