A Beach Too Far
50 years ago, Sarasota's black citizens fought for the simple right to go to the beach.
Michael D. Sprout

Michael D. Sprout has lived in Sarasota along with his wife, Holly, since 1985. They have three children, aged 13 to 24. He teaches history, government and economics at the Pendleton School at IMG Academies in Bradenton.
