The beginnings of the Town of Palm Beach and Palm Beach County, and the effort that brought thousands of black laborers to South Florida. A look at the community that blossomed in the process, the controversial historical debate, and the current efforts to pay homage to the past.
Thank you so much, I’ve been teaching my 8th grade U.S. history students about the Styx, you guys are giving me plenty of research material for them!!!
My home Town!!! I enjoyed this a great deal.
Mine too...😃
I would have never knew about my city that I was born in if this video was not produce. My grandmother Annie Laura Turner was a home keeper, a nana, and a woman who kept up a judge home. Judge Mass. I was wanted to know the history about Palm Beach, and the start of West Palm Beach. For there is a significant distinction between the two home cities of Palm Beach County, FL.
This is great . Amazing history of Palm Beach and West Palm Beach . Must watch documentary
Growing up here we were always was taught about black history outside of Palm Beach so I definitely enjoyed this ❤️
I remember hearing that story when I moved there... The fire.
The fire is true my family has been here since day 1 and the story is very true
Wow I lived in fort Pierce Florida’s whole life! I love learning about the history of florida. This is so amazing
Of course they dont wont to demonize Flagler
Wow.. as a resident of WPB, I never knew this. Thank you!!! This is great information.! Also, I’ve been to the Flagler Museum and don’t believe this was mentioned
Awesome I'm going to do a documentary this year on palm beach decendants today
I heard the same story I’m from pleasant city
There should be reparations
Flagler was behind this is I was told as a child . They wanted that land . Good riddance Flagler
Logically it’s makes sense. If there was a black community there first how in the hell the WM started “ owning” their land out right when they were basically new comers. History at that time too with Jim Crow and etc.
It’s ok. Karma has its way of circling back eventually no worries.
Please include the entire history of the area, like the decades of drug dealers (especially crack), hookers, robberies, murders and rapes. The city built a beautiful and impressive Recreation Center that was soon horrifically trashed, graffiti and all windows smashed. Let's document real history.
This is the story of humanity who do you think brought the drugs in stop being bias
Crack wasn’t out at the time they burned those people house down
Crack wasn’t out at the time they burned those people house down
Crack wasn’t even invented in 1900 😂 crack didn’t come out until the 80’s
The only thing that sucks is that Trump lives there.
