June 27, 2017 – Faith & History: Owning our Shadows – The 1920 Ocoee Massacre
Ms. Francina Boykin and the Rev. Dr. Harry Coverston
Season 10, Episode 26
Did you know there was a racially motivated massacre in Ocoee in 1920? This week on Friends Talking Faith with The Three Wise Guys we’ll discuss faith, racism, bigotry, and its deadly effects. Did you know that the act of registering to vote could be dangerous? Did you know that that Orange County once had sundown towns which warned African-Americans not to be on the streets after sundown or face violence against their persons? Did you know that Orange County has a dark history of punishing those who violated its Jim Crow laws, lynching those who dared to get out of their assigned places in a tightly segregated society? We’ll address these and other questions and bring the faith perspective to the conversation. Ms. Francina Boykin and the Rev. Dr. Harry Coverston join us to talk about a sad and little-known part of our history in Central Florida — we’ll talk about all of it on this episode of Friends Talking Faith.

The Journey Continues
We’ve been doing it together for almost 15 years: talking and listening with each other as friends! A Reform Rabbi, a Suni Imam, and a Congregational (UCC) Minister. It has been a journey of ever deepening friendship and respect. When you are friends first, then even when you disagree, you’re still friends. It’s a model of interfaith relationship we believe is essential for people of faith, and those who claim no faith community at all.
