It is an African-American festival that is held in Eatonville, Florida (not far from Orlando) and they shut down the main street that goes through Eatonville which I hate as everything comes to a stop. And every year the festival does well and honors the deceased Zora.

WOW! I had no idea they were doing that. I love the writing of Zora Neale Hurston. When do they normally have this Festival?

Hi Di, if you have any other questions on her, let me know. I will try to help out. Isn't Eatonville, Florida her birthplace?

Yes, it is her birth place. I love her writing and have most of her books. She is one of my favorite writers. Didn't know they were celebrating her like that down in Florida. I might have to go one year. Thanks.
