Group files lawsuit to try and prevent land in Eatonville from being sold

The national civil rights organization is suing Orange County Public Schools over its pending sale of a large piece of land in Eatonville, Florida. The Robert Hungerford School opened in 1897 to provide education for African American students who otherwise would have few options to go to school. Today, all that's left is a wide-open plot of land near Interstate 4, land that is owned by Orange County Public Schools. And a deal is underway to sell that land from OCPS to a developer who wants to build hundreds of homes, which could be completed on Friday.
