Title: The Future of Florida’s Coasts: What We Can Learn from the Past
Speaker: Evan Bennett, PhD, Professor, Director, Voting Rights History Civic Literacy Project
Dept. of History
Summary: Florida’s coastal spaces face challenges, from development to pollution, that are set to grow more critical in the next century. Dr. Evan Bennett argues the challenges are best understood as historical problems and should be viewed from a historical perspective. Dr. Bennett will take you on a journey through 2,000 years of Florida coastal history and show how people have interacted with the shoreline through time. He’ll also help you understand the big challenges we’re facing today, like development, pollution, and sea level rise, all through the lens of the past
