RICHES Podcast Documentaries are short form narrative documentaries that explore Central Florida history and are locally produced.

This podcast includes interviews with William Maxwell of the Ocoee Human Relations Diversity Board.<br /><br />The Ocoee Race Riot erupted on Election Day, November 2, 1920. Up to 56 African Americans were killed and many African-American buildings were razed. Those who survived were threatened or forced to leave. The riot began as a white mob responded to Moses Norman's persistence of voting in the presidential election. The mob also targeted Julius "July" Perry, a wealthy African-American farmer and contractor, who was believed to be hiding Norman.
