UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI LAW — Although January 1, 2023, marked a century since the murders of Black citizens and the destruction of their town, the year began with Florida governor, Ron DeSantis, banning state public schools from teaching the pilot AP African American Studies course. “I am Black history,” said Lizzie Polly Robinson Brown Jenkins, the founder and president of the Real Rosewood Foundation, Inc. The second-generation Rosewood historian opened the conversation for the Center for Ethics and Public Service’s Legal Profession Program panel discussion, “A Discussion on the Rosewood Massacre,” centering her remarks on the importance of Black history.
