Basis Atlanta, Georgia
Red clay is the literal and physical Georgia. The Creek and Cherokee walked
on it, the Spanish and British fought over it, cotton was picked from it,
the Civil War was waged on it, civil rights were demanded on it, and Atlanta's
skyscrapers were built into it. It is pre- and postpolitical. It underlies
all of our aspirations. "I have a dream that one day on the red hills
of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners
will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood."
--Martin Luther King Jr. |
