True living local legend: Mrs. Lillie Mae King Harper, the beloved Monarch of Plymouth, FL, a historic Apopka community.

In collaboration with Beehive Lodge #779, Mrs. Francina Boykin had the privilege of interviewing Mrs. Harper on her 104th birthday. This remarkable milestone embodies grace, resilience, and the love of life.

We invite you to watch this powerful testimony of Plymouth's history and community. To sit in her presence is to sit with wisdom itself.

A special thank you to Beehive Lodge #779 and videographer Demarcus Fry for making this possible.

In this episode Justin Baker sits down with guest commissioner, Diane Velazquez, a trailblazing leader, the First Hispanic on the City Council dais, and a former NYPD detective, to discuss her journey and service to the community.

In this episode you will get to know our renowned Community Historian and Museum Vice President, Ms. Francina Boykin. From her childhood in Apopka, activism and education at the University of North Florida, and work in the Ocoee massacre's research project she is someone that we can all learn something from as residents of Apopka.
