QUE E RIN G SPAC ES: UN COV E R I N G UNTO LD CO M M U N I T Y HISTO RY by Dakota Parks | Photos by Guy Stevens How do we decide whose stories are recorded or written in history books? For a long time, the answer has been—power. Those in positions of power had control of which stories and lives were remembered. When Emjay Williams went in for a job shadow at the University of West Florida Historic Trust, almost four years ago, they were asked to choose a research topic to pull from the collection. Out of curiosity, they chose LGBT history and were met with all but empty hands and a small, dusty folder labeled “alternative lifestyles.” This interaction sparked a need to not only uncover the untold history of the queer community in Northwest Florida, but also for the Historic Trust to update its archival collections to represent wider demographics at large. The Historic Trust’s exhibit “Queering Spaces: Celebrating Pensacola’s LGBTQ+ Community” opens May 1 at the T.T. Wentworth, Jr. Museum and will remain on display through June 2022. “We define ‘queering’ as growing spaces to become open and welcoming to the queer community that maybe weren’t accepting to begin with. We want the queer community to be included in the histories of more places than just those built for the community itself,” Community Curator Emjay Williams said. “I think this work will have a huge impact on how the younger and future generations are treated and supported in their identities.” Williams has been working on this project to collect local queer history for the last four years and even relocated from Orlando to coordinate, collect and make connections with members of the community. The dates of the historical exhibit will sandwich LGBTQ+ Pride Month celebrated annually in June each year to mark the illustrious Stonewall Riots of 1969 that sparked the movement for LGBTQ+ rights in America. Locally, however, the exhibit situates itself within the history of the Emma Jones Society and the infamous Pensacola Beach Pride Weekend
held annually at the end of May on Memorial Day weekend. “The story of pride on Pensacola Beach dates back to when men were still being persecuted and arrested for being homosexual,” Williams explained. “These two adopted brothers, Ray and Henry Hillyer decided to open a PO box in 1957 in the name of Emma Jones to have their male magazines and books sent to. At this time, the post office was actually informing police of people that were receiving illicit mail. The Hillyers formed the Emma Jones Society, letting other men use this PO box, and would get together for parties on July 4 at the San Carlos Hotel downtown Pensacola to go through the mail. These parties ended in 1975 but eventually led to what we know as pride on Memorial Day weekend.” As the exhibit works through the history of the Emma Jones Society, it will also display artifacts collected from the community like a stage of glimmering drag queen dresses that marks the history of drag in Pensacola. Other artifacts in-

clude a display case of shirts from the Stamped LGBTQ+ Film Festivals, a stamped dollar bill used to mark and count gay money and a copy of Jerry T. Watkins book Queering the Redneck Riviera: Sexuality and the Rise of Florida Tourism, which was instrumental in documenting queer history in Florida. One wall of the exhibit will be dedicated to defining words like “cisgender” and “queer,” and include a postcard of definitions that guests can take home with them. Another wall will display video news clippings, documents and a QR code that links to all of the local LGBTQ+ organizations in Pensacola. “The overall space is really designed to make it feel like a celebration,” Jessie Cragg, curator of exhibits for the Historic Trust, said. “But it’s also for everyone, regardless of who you are, to be able to get a better understanding of the history of the queer community in Northwest Florida. One of my hopes is that when people visit this exhibit, they’ll realize that the queer community has always been here. This is a story that we’ve needed to tell for a very long time, and it’s great to be a part of restoring this visibility.” One artifact that community curators were excited to track down represents a turning point in LGBTQ+ visibility. As Wil-
liams and Cragg explained, the tradition of stamping money with pink triangles or stamps that read “gay money” started in California when members of the queer community realized that their money was providing a lot of economic power, yet they were still being discriminated against. They began stamping money to keep track of the amount of money being exchanged, and this tradition spread to other cities. According to their research, in 1994 alone, an estimated $18.7 million was spent by LGBTQ tourists in Pensacola on Memorial Day weekend.
The mission of the Trust is to collect and preserve the history of all members of Northwest Florida that would otherwise be lost and forgotten.” Within the exhibit, guests will also be able to navigate another digital exhibit based out of San Francisco called the AIDS Memorial Quilt presented through the National Aids Memorial. This digitized quilt stretches across more than 48,000 panels and represents the lives and stories of more than 105,000 people that have died from AIDS. The memorial seeks to educate and fight against stigma, denial and hate, for a just future. “I’ve always wanted to be able to influence the stories that are being told, because I feel like in most museums, the stories are always similar,” Cragg explained. “History is usually told and written about old white men that do important things. I’m drawn to history for these untold stories that bring light to sections of humanity that most people don’t ever get the chance to understand or learn about.” Part of uncovering this community history means that the cataloguing and preserving of

local queer history can’t stop after the exhibit. The Historic Trust has applied for a grant through the local nonprofit Sunday’s Child to spearhead its extended project “Queering the Archive,” which will continue to expand the holdings and stories within the archival collection. This project will build off the momentum of the exhibit and continue to collect photos, documents, artifacts and record oral histories of community members to build the archive for future researchers and generations to come. “It’s not just about the exhibit—it’s about making this space available for everyone for the future. Once this exhibit comes down, we want to keep this material here and have the stories recorded and archived for researchers and members of the community to come and explore. The mission of the Trust is to collect and preserve the history of all members of Northwest Florida that would otherwise be lost and forgotten. As society progresses, archives need to reflect that growth and change.” As Cragg explained, the Historic Trust is dedicated to completing this long-term project to update the archive, regardless of whether or not it receives a grant to fund research assistants and new audio equipment. The “Queering the Archive” project will officially kick off in October 2021 with community curators beginning the stages of outreach to the local queer community and organizations. The project will also allow the Trust to build partnerships with regional organizations like the Invisible History Project, which is currently collecting Southern LGBTQ+ history within the states of Alabama, Mississippi and Georgia. The “Queering Spaces: Celebrating Pensacola’s LGBTQ+ Community” exhibit will be on display at the T. T. Wentworth, Jr. Museum, through June 2022 and is currently open on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from 10 am to 4 pm.

ERIC RANDALL SELECTED AS NEXT CHIEF OF POLICE FOR PENSACOLA POLICE DEPARTMENT Eric Randall has been selected by Mayor Grover Robinson as the next Chief of Police for the Pensacola Police Department, after a nationwide search, public participation and thorough review by the selection committee and mayor. The selection is expected to go before City Council for affirmation at the May 13 City Council meeting. Randall’s tentative start date is Monday, June 14. “We were fortunate to have multiple highly qualified, standout candidates interested in becoming our next Chief of Police, but ultimately, Eric Randall’s experience and vision made him the best fit for the City of Pensacola,” Mayor Grover Robinson said. “We are looking forward to having his leadership and expertise at the Pensacola Police Department, along with his sincere dedication to serving and connecting with the Pensacola community.” Randall, who currently serves as the Assistant Chief of Police at Newport News Police Department in Virginia, was selected from a group of three finalists after two rounds of interviews, a one-on-one meeting with Mayor Robinson and a public candidate forum. The two other finalists were Booker
Hodges, Assistant Commissioner of Law Enforcement for the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, and John Ortolano, Chief of Police in Hobbs, New Mexico. The three finalists were selected from a pool of eight semifinalists after the first round of interviews with the selection committee. “I am so excited to be selected as the Chief of Police for the Pensacola Police Department. I cannot wait to get back to Pensacola,” Randall said. “It is such an honor to get to come home and serve my community at this capacity.” The Pensacola Police Chief Selection Committee consists of the following members: • City Administrator Keith Wilkins • Deputy City Administrator Kerrith Fiddler • Human Resources Director Ted Kirchharr • Pensacola Fire Department Chief Ginny Cranor • City Attorney Susan Woolf Eric Randall’s Bio
Assistant Chief Randall began his career with Newport News Police Department in 1998 as an auxiliary officer. In Febru-
GULF POWER FOUNDATION CONTRIBUTES $100,000 TO HELP VICTIMS OF CHILD ABUSE IN LOCAL COMMUNITY PENSACOLA, Fla. — Between Hurricane Sally and COVID-19, it’s been a tough year. But through all that, Gulf Coast Kid’s House (GCKH) has continued to provide a safe place for children and families who are victims of child abuse, helping more than 3,000 children in 2020. “Right now, 1 in 10 children in our community are impacted by abuse,” said Stacey Kostevicki, executive director for Gulf Coast Kid’s House. “Our child advocacy center serves the most egregious victims of child abuse in Escambia County. We combine all of the professionals and resources needed for the intervention, investigation and prosecution of child abuse cases under one child-friendly facility.” To support this mission, the GCKH is one of four centers in Northwest Florida to receive grants from the Gulf Power Foundation. The four – Gulf Coast Children’s Advocacy Center, Gulf Coast Kid’s House, Santa Rosa Kid’s House and Emerald Coast Children’s Advocacy Center – will receive $100,000 to support their efforts throughout Northwest Florida. “Agencies likes the Gulf Coast Kid’s House Center provide a critical need in our community for those that are most vulnerable,” said Sandy Sims, executive director for the Gulf Power Foundation. “The Gulf Power Foundation is proud to be able to assist them in their
important work. It’s just one of many ways we seek to support our communities in Northwest Florida.” The grant will help GCKH with immediate family needs such as counseling as well as child abuse prevention programs. GCKH teaches all students K-12 regarding child abuse and child trafficking prevention and has created an online, 40-minute training, “Know Child Abuse” (www.knowchildabuse. org) so that all adults in our community can learn to recognize, report and respond to child abuse. “Gulf Power Foundation is always so appreciated – and I can’t say how much so this year,” Kostevicki said. “We have seen a dramatic increase in child abuse cases as our community faces challenges from Hurricane Sally and the COVID-19 pandemic. We can never truly express our gratitude for Gulf Power Foundation’s investment in GCKH and the children we serve.” The Gulf Power Foundation has operated for 30 years as an independent 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, partnering and investing in communities throughout Northwest Florida. The Foundation is one of the region’s largest corporate foundations, funded entirely through resources independent of Gulf Power’s customers.

DESANTIS BLOCKS LOCAL COVID-19 ORDERS
JIM TURNER NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis suspended all local-government coronavirus emergency orders on Monday as he signed a bill that makes permanent his ban on COVID-19 vaccine “passports” and limits the authority of cities and counties in future health-care crises. “My message is that the vaccines protect you. Get vaccinated, and then live your life as if you are protected,” DeSantis said during an event at the Big Catch at Salt Creek, a St. Petersburg restaurant. “You don’t have to chafe under restrictions infinitum.” DeSantis announced an executive order suspending local-government orders about coronavirus precautions and signed an emergency-management bill (SB 2006) approved Thursday by the Legislature. While the executive order won’t block businesses from requiring customers to socially distance or wear masks, DeSantis said he will call at the next state clemency board meeting for lifting outstanding COVID-19-related fines that local governments have imposed on businesses. Democrats called the executive order “premature” as deaths in Florida from COVID-19 continue to average around 60 a day, while saying the socalled vaccine passport-ban is “strange” as Republicans advocate for business freedom. The ban prevents businesses, schools and government agencies from requiring people to show proof of vaccination before gaining entry.
Rep. Fentrice Driskell, D-Tampa, said the executive order is a further intrusion into local governments, while the passport-ban does the same to businesses. “It’s been an interesting sort of role reversal that we’re seeing with Republican leadership, where they keep trying to tell businesses and corporations how to do their job and how to run their business,” Driskell said. “It’s very strange to me.” House Minority Co-leader Evan Jenne, D-Dania Beach, said the executive order will pressure businesses to lift COVID-19 requirements to avoid confusion. Jenne added that one of the bright spots in DeSantis’ handling of the pandemic was allowing some counties, particularly in Southeast Florida, to make their own decisions in the early days of the pandemic. “This is a complete reversal of one of the things that I would actually praise him for,” Jenne said. “He let places like Dade, Broward, Orange, Hillsborough, Pinellas, Duval (counties), kind of make some decisions on their own about how they wanted to handle this. And it really kept not just the amount of cases down, it kept a lot of the deaths from really skyrocketing, which they of course eventually did.” The bill signed Monday by DeSantis will allow the governor to override local orders during health crises if they are determined to “unnecessarily restrict individual rights or liberties.” “We need to put reasonable checks on government at every local level now
FIRST BLACK SUPREME COURT JUSTICE DIES AT 88 JIM SAUNDERS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — Joseph Hatchett, whose groundbreaking career included becoming the first Black justice on the Florida Supreme Court, died Friday at age 88, the Supreme Court announced Saturday. Hatchett was appointed to the Supreme Court by Gov. Reubin Askew in 1975 and served until 1979, when President Jimmy Carter named him as a federal appeals-court judge. He stepped down from the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in 1999 and became a partner with the Akerman law firm in Tallahassee. “His life represents an amazing commitment to fight for justice and equality at a time when the battle for both was stacked against him,” Rosemary Barkett, a former Florida Supreme Court justice and appellate judge, said as part of a January event in which the Florida Supreme Court Historical Society honored Hatchett with a lifetime achievement award. “His life is an example of patience and perseverance and calmness but in the face of daily bouts of injustice and unfairness. As early as grade school, I know that Joe was very keenly aware of the civilrights movement and the inequality of segregation.” Barkett was on the Atlanta-based 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals when Hatchett served as chief judge from 1996 to 1999. In a video that was part of the January event, she described Hatchett as “inspirational as a leader.” “Joe was a paragon of steadiness and calmness no matter what difficulty arose in the circuit or in the court,” Barkett said. “His external gentleness
and calmness is wrapped around a steel core of dedication to equality and justice.” In a video interview that was part of the January event, Hatchett said “honesty and the truth are the hallmarks of good lawyers and good judges.” Hatchett said he was proud of steps that were taken by the Florida Supreme Court during his tenure to allow cameras in courtrooms and to improve disciplining of lawyers. “Those two things come to mind where Florida has led the nation when it came to the legal profession, one, cameras in courtrooms and disciplinary proceedings,” Hatchett said. Hatchett, who grew up in Pinellas County, graduated from Florida A&M University in 1954 and went on to earn a law degree from Howard University in 1959. When he took the Florida Bar exam in 1959, he could not stay in the hotel where it was administered because of the Jim Crow system, the Supreme Court said in a news release Saturday. Hatchett entered private practice in Daytona Beach and in 1966 was appointed as an assistant U.S. attorney in the Middle District of Florida. He became a federal magistrate in 1971 before getting appointed by Askew to the Supreme Court. In 1976, Hatchett won a statewide election to retain the Supreme Court seat. Florida later switched from holding contested elections for the Supreme Court to a merit-retention system. Hatchett was preceded in death by his wife, Betty, and is survived by children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The Supreme Court said services were pending Saturday.
BIDEN ADMINISTRATION TO COVER VACCINE FEES NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF As part of the Biden administration’s efforts to provide free access to COVID-19 shots, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services announced Monday it will pay administration fees to health-care providers who vaccinate patients enrolled in health plans that don’t cover the fees or that require pa-
tient cost sharing. Providers can submit vaccine administration fee claims for reimbursement to the online web portal called the COVID-19 Coverage Assistance Fund.

that we have seen what can play out when this happens for such an extended period of time,” House Speaker Chris Sprowls, R-Palm Harbor, said. DeSantis on April 2 issued an executive order blocking vaccine passports, which he said would create “huge” privacy issues that could result in people handing over medical information to a “big corporation.” The bill makes that permanent. House Pandemics & Public Emergencies Chairman Tom Leek, R-Ormond Beach, said the bill prepares Florida for the next public-health emergency, while the COVID-19 crisis has provided “a good reminder of the extraordinary power with which we have vested our governments.” “Thirteen months ago, we were facing a looming but largely indecipherable crisis,” Leek said. “We didn’t know what was coming at us. None of us could have imagined that governments would order shutdowns of your businesses and force people into isolation into their homes. You couldn’t imagine it. Today, what the once novel virus was is less so. We have therapeutics that work, we have vaccinations that save lives.” DeSantis pointed to about 9 million people being vaccinated in the state. “You have to ask yourself, if given that type of performance of the vaccine, given how great the monoclonal antibodies have done, which nobody ever talks about, but those have done very well, given all that, if that still you need emergency powers under those circumstances, then when are you going to be
ELECTIONS MEASURE GOES TO DESANTIS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA STAFF Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday formally received an elections bill that was one of the most-controversial issues of the 2021 legislative session. DeSantis will have until May 18 to act on the bill (SB 90) but has already said he will sign it. The Republican-controlled Legislature passed the bill Thursday,
able to move beyond it?” DeSantis continued. According to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 6.4 million people in Florida have been fully vaccinated, 29.86 percent of the population, the 36th-best rate among states. The state Department of Health reported Monday that nearly 2.6 million people have received the first doses of a two-dose series. With DeSantis lifting local government orders, Senate President Wilton Simpson, R-Trilby, said the state Capitol will be fully reopened for a special session on gambling during the week of May 17. “Make no mistake about it, families are still dealing with COVID,” Simpson said. “We have family members still dying of COVID. But you have to ultimately weigh the balance of people’s lives and their mental health and and the amount of suicides and all of the things that go wrong by locking our citizens down.” The bill signed by DeSantis will require local emergency orders to be narrowly tailored and to be extended in seven-day increments for a maximum duration of 42 days. Currently, such orders can be issued initially for seven days and extended indefinitely in sevenday increments. Also, state agencies will be required to develop by the end of 2022 public health emergency plans, and the Division of Emergency Management will have to stockpile personal protective equipment.
the next-to-last day of the annual legislative session, over fierce opposition from Democrats. The bill, in part, would place additional restrictions on voting by mail, including on the use of drop boxes for ballots. Republican supporters said the measure is designed to ensure election security, but critics said it would lead to voter suppression. Also Monday, DeSantis received a bill (HB 419) that would make changes in early learning programs and a bill (HB 7011) that seeks to improve childhood literacy.

TEN DEAD ISSUES AS LEGISLATIVE SESSION ENDED JIM SAUNDERS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA TALLAHASSEE — From abortion restrictions to vacation rentals, many high-profile bills died Friday when the Florida legislative session ended. Here are 10 issues that did not make it through the Legislature: ABORTION: The House overwhelmingly passed a bill that would have prevented doctors from providing abortions that women seek because of tests showing fetuses will have disabilities. The bill about so-called “disability abortions” threatened criminal penalties against doctors, but the Senate did not take it up. ALIMONY: A long-running debate about overhauling Florida’s alimony laws will have to wait at least another year. While the House approved alimony changes, the controversial issue stalled in the Senate. The proposal, as in the past, sought to eliminate what is known as permanent alimony and reduce the duration of alimony. BRIGHT FUTURES: The Senate ran into noisy opposition from students and other critics when it started moving forward with a proposal to make eligibility for Bright Futures scholarships contingent on students selecting degree programs likely to lead to employment. The Senate ultimately backed away from the idea. DATA PRIVACY: Business groups breathed easier Friday with the demise of a bill that would have given consumers more control over personal data collected by companies. The bill, backed by House Speaker Chris Sprowls, R-Palm Harbor, faced heavy opposition from an army of business lobbyists. MEDICAL MARIJUANA: More than four years after Florida voters broadly legalized medical marijuana, lawmakers let die a proposal that

would have limited THC potency in smokable mairjuana and other cannabis products. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the main psychoactive component in cannabis. PENSION SYSTEM: An effort by the Senate to overhaul the state retirement system fizzled as it was not taken up by the House. The Senate proposal would have blocked new government employees from enrolling in the traditional pension system and required them to enroll in a 401(k)-style plan. TERM LIMITS: A renewed attempt by the House to impose eightyear term limits on county school board members died in the Senate. The proposal, which has emerged repeatedly in recent years, would have asked voters in 2022 to pass a constitutional amendment to limit the terms of school board members. UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS: After massive job losses during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Senate backed increasing unemployment benefits from a maximum of $275 a week to $375 a week. But the House did not take up the proposal, which also faced opposition from Gov. Ron DeSantis. UNION DUES: Public-employee unions staved off attempts by Republican lawmakers to place new restrictions on union dues. The proposals included adding a step in which government employers would have had to confirm with workers that they want dues taken out of their pay before the deductions could start. VACATION RENTALS: Bills aimed at further restricting local governments from regulating vacation rental properties did not make it through the House and Senate. The issue has long been controversial, as cities and counties have fought the additional restrictions on their authority.
