The Two Regimes Collection contains 118 paintings, 150 sketches and a manuscript - now a book published posthumously titled "Two Regimes ...

The People of Territorial Florida Lecture Series, Museum of Florida History Time: 7:00 p.m. This year marks the bicentennial of Florida becoming a U.S. Territory. To commemorate this important historical event, the Museum of Florida History is presenting a virtual lecture series that focuses on the diverse peoples living in Florida leading up to and during the Territorial Period and how their lives were affected by the transition from Spanish to American governance and policies. Dr. Nashid Madyun, Director of the Meek-Eaton Black Archives at Florida A&M University, discusses how for centuries Africans and their descendants held a precarious place in Florida society where freedom and slavery often existed side by side. Previously, runaways from British colonies, and later American states, sought the protection of the Spaniards and Catholicism. When Spain ceded Florida to the U.S. this protection disappeared. With the new government, a society built on slavery and plantation economics took firm hold on the territory ending the hope of freedom for Black communities for generations.

The People of Territorial Florida Lecture Series, Museum of Florida History Time: 7:00 p.m.- conclusion Description: This year marks the bicentennial of the transfer of Florida from Spanish rule to U.S. control and becoming a U.S. Territory. To commemorate this important historical event, the Museum of Florida History is presenting a virtual lecture series that focuses on the diverse peoples living in Florida leading up to and during the Territorial Period and how their lives were affected by the transition from Spanish to American governance and policies. Marty Bowers, Education Coordinator at the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum and member of the Seminole Tribe, examines the struggle of Florida’s Native tribes which intensified following Florida becoming a U.S. Territory. Tribes like the Seminoles resisted and adapted as more settlers moved to the territory but ultimately, they were forced to retreat to undeveloped and undesirable parts of Florida to survive. |
