Zora Neale Hurston's home

Zora Neale Hurston's home town Eatonville, Florida, has become "a place of pilgrimmage" according to Damien Cave, "Going Down the Road: In a Town Apart, the Pride and Trials of Black Life," New York Times (September 28, 2008).  Eatonville's "Zora! Festival" welcomed Alice Walker, Toni Morrison and Ruby Dee this year.
