Our primary goal is to insure that the history of Virgil Hawkins’ life and fight for Civil Rights is both widely known and not forgotten. We have designed a Virgil Hawkins T-shirt that tells his story, so you can provide this education to others by wearing a shirt honoring his history. T Shirts are available in a variety of styles, colors and sizes through Bonfire.com at the following link: https://www.bonfire.com/virgilhawkins-desegregatedfloridauniversities. We also welcome volunteers interested in assisting us with our continuing efforts to compile Hawkins and Florida’s Civil Rights history and in organizing group presentations and historical displays. Contact us today at (813) 704-6892, by email to vhawkinsorg@gmail.com or by mail to: Virgil Hawkins Historical Society, c/o Harley Herman, P O Box 3455, Plant City FL 33563, to learn more about how you can get involved with our efforts.
