I suppose in some areas highways were located to avoid blowback from those with political clout. In at least one case that meant moving I-85 closer to the Governor's home town instead of the original route that was near my hometown in NE Georgia. Otherwise, he was a pretty good Governor. During the original interstate construction through downtown Atlanta, I worked on utility relocation projects to pay my room and board and engineering school tuition. I honestly do not know where else the highways could have been located. Affluent and poor neighborhoods were equally affected. Even worse Georgia Tech students became more separated from the Varsity.
Excellently written. I clicked through to the story on the gavel and have a recommendation on how to continue to honor a man who contributed so much to the faith but who had flaws. The article mentions that he later changed his mind about slavery and especially lynching. Use him as an object lesson on reconciliation and forgiveness. Gavel in SBC conventions with the intent of the latter day man, not the former.
"Back in the days when racism in America was actually institutional and ubiquitous,"
Reasonable, intelligent people understand these statements are not only incorrect, but they are evil. And every day somebody is online making it obvious that these racist sentiments are still rampant all over "christianity". And they will continue to say no thanks.
