Description
In 1932, Atlanta had the South's largest population of educated African Americans. However, Jim Crow's dictates meant they were almost entirely excluded from public life. Ferguson shows how Roosevelt's New Deal opened up oppportunities for black Atlantans struggling to acheive full citizenship.
