Born in raised in SoFlo as well. Welcome an offline discussion (email
fvellu@yahoo.com) nothing like sharing ideas without yelling to get stuff understood if not agreed too. But yeah, I grew up in Carver Ranches on 28th street, Hallandale Beach Blvd was 29th and then Lake Forest was the next neighborhood. When I was a small kid, Lake Forrest was white (some white Hispanics that did not live as Hispanic, like literally I found out when we were adults) and Carver Ranches was all black. It was a sundown town. A guy who is now a friend (Jonathan) and I share stories about being run out of each others neighborhood after sunset. Having grown up on the border and being in gifted I had a lot of white friends and as you can tell, I didn't much care about the "rules". Hell I joined the cub scouts at Lake Forrest as opposed to the one at Carver Ranches Park (it was slightly closer to be honest). Short of it is, there were some seriously segregated areas. Davie was a hardcore sundown town. There is a great national book Buried in Bitter Waters that covers the topic.
But I welcome a chat, you seem like a good dude.
