I took this picture under the bridge of auburn avenue. The picture describes the Sweet Auburn back then. Including Atlanta Daily world, Atlanta lite Insurance, Butler Street YMCA, Old Fellows Building. Although Auburn Avenue is not as prosperous as before. The picture here records all the fancy scene.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This picture here is also drawn on a wall. \u201cNo more Hunger\u201d on the wall indicated that the African Americans are only pursing to eat. There is also another line of words on the wall. \u201cin this country, you can do anything but can I live next to you?\u201d. This sentence here implies that the inequality between different races of people.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This picture here is Martin Luther king, who is the leader of the Civil rights movement. Many people saw him as the hero. The face on the wall is not facing the auburn avenue, which represent Martin Luther king is talking to the white people who are not in auburn avenue.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I found this sculpture \u201cThrough his eyes\u201d compelling. The sculpture is John Wesley Dobbs who was considered as one of the most influential leader of the sweet Auburn Neighborhood. As I looked through the sculpture, I found his eyes were not graved on there. I stand at his eyes on my way back. And I looked straight, I found his eyes are facing the side of Auburn street, which represent his eyes are looking on his land- Auburn avenue<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The picture is drawn on a wall. It represents all people having fun together no matter of racial issue. I believe this picture here represent the hope of African Americans, they are hoping for all people in the country to bond together. Just like what Martin Luther King said in his speech, \u201cI have a dream\u201d. This picture on the wall is a dream for African Americans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
