Decades after their murders, two Black Mims educators and civil rights activists are on the cusp of having a historic injustice undone Tuesday when the school board considers restoring their status as Brevard County teachers.
A resolution up for discussion at Tuesday’s Brevard County School Board meeting would name Harry Moore and his wife Harriette teachers emeritus and declare that they were unjustly fired in 1946. It also provides for an elementary and secondary school curriculum in their name and an annual trip for 8th grade students to the Harry T. and Harriette V. Moore Cultural Complex, pending funding and the relaxation of COVID-19 restrictions.
