On Sunday, September 22, 2008, more than 200 people gathered at the “heart of Lakeland,” the intersection of Lakeland Road and 51st Avenue, between two historic churches, for Lakeland Heritage Day, a time of celebration and remembrance. The focus for that year’s celebration was the importance of religious life in the heritage of Lakeland. The featured event of the festivities was an outdoor worship service with participants from all of Lakeland’s churches: the First Baptist Church of College Park, the Embry African Methodist Episcopal Church, the Washington Brazilian Seventh-day Adventist Church, and the Salvation African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. Pastor David Barrozo of the Washington Brazilian S.D.A. Church and the Rev. Dr. Edna Canty Jenkins of Embry A.M.E. Church were photographed during the event.

When the United States entered World War II, the Navy's African-American sailors had for decades been limited to serving as mess attendants. However, the wartime pressures of a manpower shortage, the willingness of thousands of African Americans to serve, plus political pressure, forced important changes. Though the Navy remained racially segregated in training and in most service units, in 1942 the enlisted ranks were opened to all qualified personnel. Weems sent the photograph below to his wife, Mary, while he was serving aboard a ship in the Pacific theater.
