In addition, our collections of FEC Railway and Florida transportation memorabilia are the largest in the world: they are larger than the state museum\u2019s collection (of like items, of course, not their entire collection) and larger than the Flagler Museum\u2019s collection, the same disclaimer applying. But, and in addition to that, they are the largest collections of Miami memorabilia and Floridiana in private hands (private as opposed to the museums) in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Just a few of the superlatives related to The Bramson Archive: we maintain, in addition to the largest collections in the country as noted above, we hold the largest Greater Miami images collection in private hands in the country, with, between photographs, negatives and slides, well more than 40,000 individual pieces; the largest collection of Greater Miami hotel\/motel memorabilia in public or private hands in the country, including booklets, brochures, stationery, linens and more; the largest collection of Black\/African-American memorabilia in white hands in the country, not comparing ourselves to Miami\u2019s Black Archives but with the disclaimer noted as well as a number of other exceptional parts to and areas of the collection.<\/p>\n<p>I give fourteen different talks on South Florida local and Florida transportation history and am the only person in the state who gives the talk titled \u201cThe History of Discrimination in South Florida,\u201d which is half Jim Crow and segregation and half restricted clientele, dealing with the year during which Jewish people could not belong to certain private clubs or stay in certain hotel.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the above, I am America\u2019s single most-published Florida history book author\u2014none self-published\u2014my 33rd, \u201cLOST RESTAURANTS of MIAMI\u201d having recently come out, and yet the shameful reluctance of the Miami Herald to properly cover it, along with their other hideously offensive actions toward and against me, need to be not only brought to public notice but remedied by that \u201cnews outlet\u201d on an immediate basis. As noted below, more on and about this in our next column.<\/p>\n<p>And yet, with all of that, such organizations as HistoryMiami, due primarily to one person who has poisoned them against me, have constantly and unendingly engaged in nothing other than bigotry, prejudice and discrimination toward and against me (and with all of their denials that\u2014discrimination\u2014is exactly what it is), excluding me\u2014shamefully and disgustingly\u2014from participation in their events, the same being true with the Jewish Museum of Florida and Miami Design Preservation League. This is as shameful as racial and religious discrimination and yet people who are supposedly of \u201cgood will\u201d are either afraid to act or simply choose not to take these statements seriously, or to act on them in a positive and forthright manner, which is easy when they are not the affected party.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #808000;\"><em><strong>Next column: the who and the incidents and the shamefulness of all that they are doing. \u201cStay tuned!\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[si-contact-form form=&#8217;2&#8242;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Seth H.
