Latoya Lovett, granddaughter of Mrs. Aquilla J. Morgan and Paul Maple grandson of Mr. James M. Berrien are working to ensure their grand parents’ legacy in Wimauma, FL, a community in Hillsborough County.
There will be a concerted effort to request the school board to honor Mrs. Morgan by naming the new high school after her on September 5, 2024 at the school board meeting at 3:30pm.
Paul campaigns for Wimauma’s new library at Bethune Park be named for Mr. Berrien, a warrior for equal access to education, protecting the civil rights of children and pressing his case with Florida Governors. They both shared rare historical recollections about their ancestors and their work in Wimauma.
