Show Notes
In the 1960s, UGA destroyed Linnentown - a historically Black community - to make way for Creswell, Russel and Brumby Hall. In this week's episode, reporter Henry Queen talks to Hattie Thomas Whitehead about her experience living in Linnentown and why members of the community are speaking out.
