On Saturday, Susan was invited by a friend to attend a photographic exhibition at the Atlanta University Center Library on the west side of the city centre. The photographer had spent a year photographing the almost derelict site of one of Atlanta's historically black African-American universities, which was situated nearby. We also got a private tour of the library, which serves the African-American cluster of Universities in Atlanta, and a look at it's own current exhibition about the student civil rights movement formed by students in Atlanta in the 1960's. It was a fascinating and thought-provoking experience which made the present-day issues of education, race, segregation, discrimination and poverty very real.
Here is a link to a review of the photographic exhibition for anyone interested:
