Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park }}Eula Mae Gandy Johnson[1] (1906–2001) was an American activist in the civil rights movement. She is known for her work to end Jim Crow segregation in public beaches, schools, restaurants in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.[2] She was considered by many to be the "Rosa Parks of Fort Lauderdale."[3][4] In 1959, she became the first woman president of the Fort Lauderdale NAACP.[5] In her capacity as president, she filed several lawsuits against public schools to seek equality for black students, as well as fought against separation in public spaces like drive-in theaters.[6] Part of her activism work resulted in the end of segregation at Broward County beaches. Johnson, along with Dr. Von D. Mizell and several NAACP members, organized “wade-ins” at the white only beaches in 1961. The city of Fort Lauderdale sued Johnson for being a public nuisance.[7] After a judge refused the city's request to put a halt to it, the beaches became desegregated.[8] Johnson died in January 2001 at the age of 94.[1] Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park in Hollywood, Florida is named after her and fellow civil rights activist Dr. Von Mizell.[9]References1. ^1 {{cite news|url=https://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/fl-xpm-2004-02-20-0402200079-story.html|title=BLAZING A PATH|author1=Toni Marshall|first=|date=February 20, 2004|work=|accessdate=March 17, 2019|publisher=Sun-Sentinel|author2=Gregory Lewis}} {{civil-rights-movement-stub}}2. ^{{Cite journal|last=Spencer|first=DeShuna|date=Summer 2008|title=Fort Lauderdale NAACP Opens Museum to Honor Civil Rights Activist|url=https://search.proquest.com/docview/199794059/5D9858D549014136PQ/1?accountid=27372|journal=The Crisis|volume= 115|issue= 3|pages=49|via=ProQuest}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=|title=EULA JOHNSON ARRIVED, Jim Crow had to go|last=Roby|first=Cynthia|date=2012|work=South Florida Times|access-date=}} 4. ^{{Cite news|url=|title=LAUDERDALE HONORS RIGHTS TRAILBLAZER SISTRUNK BLVD.
