"The workshop will use sites in Atlanta to tell the powerful and provocative stories of the imposition and demolition of the Color Line. The workshop participants will explore the Fox Theater, where the physical barriers of a segregated facility are still visible. They will walk the streets of the two principal historic districts that trace the history of the color line, the Martin Luther King National Historic Site and the Atlanta University National Register District. They will visit sites throughout the city where Civil Rights history is memorialized. The participants will have background readings and primary historic documents, access to historic site documentation on the websites of the Library of Congress (American Memory), the National Park Service, and the Landmark sites themselves in their study of the color line. They will hear lectures in their meeting places and at the sites they visit. Participants will receive resource packets with primary and secondary source materials for principal historical figures and the landmark sites with which they are associated in Atlanta."
