We must never forget their stories, their efforts, nor their accomplishments, and must relate to future generations how their sacrifices changed our lives for the better. To learn more, the following are some of the gatherings in ATLANTA that will be addressing the human rights violations, history and present day effects that were born out of the Black Power Movement:
