Emmanuel's love of history began in childhood when his father Emanuel George Sr. would teach him Black history in efforts to highlight what he thought Emmanuel would not be taught in public school. Emmanuel credits his father's teachings to his ability to seek out overlooked narratives.","In 2015, after taking a leave of absence from pursuing his Bachelors in Film from Full Sail University, Emmanuel found himself joining a group of local activists in Miami -Dade County who were advocating on behalf of its residents to fight displacement. During this time, Emmanuel spoke with local residents and learned about the history of Black Miami. This curiosity led Emmanuel to begin submerging himself in learning the Black history of his home community, Broward County. ","In 2016, Emmanuel George produced his first film under the Black Broward Film Project, entitled A Tale of Sibling Communities; Danie and Liberia a documentary about the shared relationship between two Black communities in Broward County. The film featured oral interviews of local pioneers and historical landmarks that are staples to the community. Emmanuel followed this up with his 2021 film entitled Stories from our Ancestors: An Ode to Attucks High School; a film focusing on how the closing of a historically Black High school impacted the community of Liberia and its neighboring communities: Danie, Carver Ranches, Hallandale, Ojus, and Davie. ","In 2021, under the mentorship of esteemed historian Kitty Oliver, Emmanuel landed a fellowship with Lake Wales Museum where he interviewed and archived stories of residents from the historic Lincoln Avenue community. From there, Emmanuel would complete a fellowship with Cogenerators (formerly Encore) and work with Florida International University's Wolfson Public Humanities Lab, the Delray Beach Historical Society, the African American Research Library and the Old Dillard Museum, further expanding the ways he shares and preserves local Black history. Most recently, Emmanuel completed a fellowship with Temple University, serving as the Community Archivist for the Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH). \nCurrently, Emmanuel founded and runs the Black Orchid Foundation, a non-profit centered on preserving the stories of Black high schools in the south that were phased out after the supreme court case of Brown vs. Board of Education, ruling that separating children in public schools on the basis of race was unconstitutional. Emmanuel is also the youngest person in Broward County to have his own special collections archive, the Emmanuel George Collection at the African American Research Library, where he actively collects physical and digitally archived data on the history of Attucks High School. ","Emmanuel's goal is to continue bridging the generational divide by connecting the youth from the rising Black Student Union populations in Broward County with the pioneers from the Historic Black High Schools (Attucks, Dillard, and Blanche Ely) through an Oral History workshop, in hopes to inspire young archivists to narrate their own stories and preserve their history at the African American Research Library and Cultural Center.","This collection received file processing.

On the day of December 7, 1941, he was working on bridge construction in Fredericksburg, VA, where he also lived in a boarding house.  Meekins, Jr. enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Corps on December 29, 1941, and received basic training at Ft. Jackson, SC where he qualified for the enlisted pilot program.  In spring 1942, he attended basic Army Air Corps training for five months at Shepherd Field, TX.  Afterwards, Meekins, Jr. transferred to the Army Air Corps Cadet training at Kelly Field, San Antonio, TX. for two months, then returned back to Shepherd Field. He received additional training at English Field, Amarillo, TX, Chanute Field, IL, OSS Power Plant Specialist School, Wright Field, Dayton, OH, Camp Campbell, TN, Aiken, SC Army Air Corps Field, Key Field, Meridian, MS, and Kerns, Utah for weapons training.\n Meekins, Jr. was transferred overseas in the fall of 1943 to the North African Campaign for five months before being transferred to Alipore Air Base in India as part of the 10th Air Force.  Here he flew PBY-5A Catalinas for air-sea rescue.  Meekins, Jr. then transferred to Assam, India, for four months. In late 1944 to early 1945, he transferred to Myitkyina Base in Burma for six months, and then Bhamo, Burma.  While stationed at Bhamo during a Japanese siege, Meekins, Jr. discovered the Japanese lithograph print of a woman in a former Japanese military dugout.  He was last assigned to Kunming, China, for three months in late 1945. Meekins, Jr. returned to the U.S. in December 1945 and was discharged.\n After the war, Meekins became a pioneer highway contractor for the State of South Carolina for more than 30 years, while working on the State's primary highway system. He was the owner of Swain Construction Company in Kingstree and St. Matthews, SC.  Meekins, Jr. passed away on January 17, 2017.  He was married for 41 years to Delores Gwen Mitchum Meekins.\n The author of the painting discovered by Meekins, Jin Meisheng (1902-1989), was a well known Chinese artist, who was a native from Shanghai. From 1920 onward, he painted calendar posters exclusively for the Commercial Press in Shanghai. In 1930, he established his own studio. Together with Jin Xuechen and Li Mubai, he was known as one of the \"Three Pillars of Calendar Posters.\"  From the 1950s onward, Jin was attached to the Shanghai People's Fine Arts Publishing House. Jin was able to assimilate Chinese traditional painting and Western watercolor in his works despite their separate and unique styles.

He migrated to Dania Beach, Florida in 1907 where he and Minnie began farming and raising children as one of the pioneering Black families in Broward County, Florida. He was a strong believer in education and is credited for establishing the Dania School for Coloreds and St. Ruth Baptist Church in Broward County. All 14 of the Mizell children attended high school and 10 of them went on to obtain college degrees. Some of the more prominent Mizell children include Dr. Von DeLaney Mizell, Reverend Ivory Mizell, and Leroy \"Roy\" Mizell.","Reverend Ivory Mizell was a photographer, documenting the lives of African Americans in Broward County. He also established the first library in 1948 at Dixie Court Projects. Leroy \"Roy\" Mizell was a mortician and established the Roy Mizell Funeral Home, today known as the Roy Mizell \u0026 Kurtz Funeral Home.","Dr. Von DeLaney Mizell (1910-1973) earned a Bachelor of Science degree at Moorehouse College in 1932 and completed his medical education at Meharry Medical College in 1936. He held residencies at John Hopkins Hospital, Grady School of Medicine, and Provident Hospital (Chicago, Illinois). Dr. Mizell advocated for better healthcare for the Black community in Broward County. He established Provident Hospital with Dr. James Franklin Sistrunk in 1938. Dr. Sistrunk was the first Black doctor in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Sistrunk Avenue in Fort Lauderdale is named in his honor. In addition to his medical profession, Dr. Mizell and Eula Mae Johnson initiated the wade-ins at the \"white-only\" beaches in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 1961. One of Florida's state parks' name changed to honor their activism – Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park in Dania Beach, Florida.","Ethel Mizell Pappy was born on May 27, 1916. She attended Tuskegee Institute in Alabama and Florida Normal and Industrial College, earning her Bachelor of Science degree in elementary education in 1944. She received her Masters of Arts degree in 1955 from Columbia University. Ethel taught elementary students from 1938 to 1982. In addition to her vocation, she served as the first president of the Von D. Mizell Library at the African American Research Library and Cultural Center, of which she was awarded for Lifetime Achievement in 2013. Ethel was a member of community organizations such as Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, the NAACP, the Urban League of Broward County, the Broward County Historical Society, the Democratic Club, the Board of Directors of Henderson Mental Health Clinic, and First Baptist Church Piney Grove. Ethel married Lilburne Brogdon Pappy and they had two daughters, Rosamond and Adlai. Her husband worked as a pharmacist at Pappy Pharmacy in Fort Lauderdale. Ethel passed away on May 18, 2014.","Provident Hospital opened in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 1938. Black physicians Dr. Von D. Mizell and Dr. James Sistrunk founded the hospital to provide medical services to African Americans in Broward County during segregation. The hospital operated as a non-profit institution, expanding its capacity of 8 beds to 42 beds from 1938 to 1951. Dr. Mizell worked as the Medical Director and supervised staff. After the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Provident Hospital closed due to integration. The building became a community center, the Mizell Center for several years.
