This interview with Norma Jean Walker was conducted in July 1999. Ms. Walker is a native of Jacksonville, Florida and moved to Overtown in 1964. The interview took place at Ms. Walker's office at the Belafonte Tacolcy Center (BTC) in Liberty City. Ms. Walker speaks of community life, the use of public spaces and parks, and the sense of family that existed in the neighborhood in the past. She contrasts the community life of previous years with the current state of affairs where racis, politics and economics have eroded community ties.
