SJCPLS Online Event: Civil Rights Era St. Johns Resources @ The State Archives - 06/16/2021
Oral interview
Most of us are familiar with the historical resources about St. Johns County that are located here locally. But do you know about the documents pertaining to St. Johns that are housed in Tallahassee? Join us as Dr. Josh Goodman, Archives Historian at the State Archives of Florida, shows some of the really neat resources that can be found at the State Archives. He not only shows them to us, but he also instructs us on how we can locate the digitized copies ourselves on the Florida Memory website. This event is the first in a five part series. In this one, Dr. Goodman will concentrate on resources specific to the Civil Rights Movement.

St. Augustine Record, "Goldie Eubanks, Son Arrested on Murder Charges," November 6, 1963
The arrest of NAACP leader Goldie Eubanks
In 1963, St. Augustine was in the throes of the Civil RIghts movement. After protests by Black activists, Ku Klux Klan members would drive through Lincolnville and shoot into Black homes and businesses. This article in the St. Augustine Record details the arrest of Rev. Goldie Eubanks and his son, Goldie Eubanks, Jr. Klan member William David Kinard was one of the men who who drove around Lincolnville, terrorizing the residents, shooting into their homes. On October 25th, 1963, numerous Lincolnville residents shot back, resulting in Kinard's death. It is unknown who shot Kinard, but Eubanks would later be acquitted of his charges. The shooting and subsequent arrest escalated tensions in the already tumultuous city.
