Garfield Devoe Rogers Sr. : ウィキペディア英語版
Garfield Devoe Rogers Sr.
Garfield Devoe Rogers Sr. was an entrepreneur, community leader and philanthropist in Tampa and Bradenton, Florida. He founded a life insurance company for blacks during racial segregation in the United States〔()〕 and helped fund the establishment of Rogers Park, Tampa, the first golf course for Tampa's black residents during the segregation era〔()〕 and the second golf course for blacks in Florida after one was established in Miami Gardens.
Rogers Garden Park Apartments, a segregated public housing project built in 1953 on 13th Avenue West between First Street and Ninth Street West, was also named for Rogers Sr. and was known as the Rogers Project. It was eventually demolished and the site is now home to the G.D. Rogers Garden Elementary School. Juneteenth celebrations have taken place on the site to commemorate its history and significance to the black community. It included about 180 2 and 3 bedroom units and was Bradenton’s first public housing. Home to cooks, maids, field workers, and teachers, it was close to Ninth Avenue West, a corridor of black businesses, and the Palms of Bradenton on the other side of First Street was showplace for black entertainers like James Brown and Etta James. Rent for the apartments was once about $22 a month.〔(Juneteenth celebration remembers ) June 17, 2010 Bradenton Herald〕
In April 2013 a bust of Rogers was added along the Tampa Riverwalk.
