STORIES

Histories of Atlanta’s New Deal public housing can be told in myriad ways, through stories crafted by researchers who bring their own interests and preoccupations to the table. These accessible, richly illustrated, archivally based original works of public history were researched and written by student collaborators in Christina Crawford’s Emory University seminars on Atlanta’s New Deal public housing. The topics emerged from archival research supplemented by readings and discussions about archival silences, in-person site visits, seminar conversations, and peer review. Information on how to cite these texts as well as additional bibliographic information to extend research on the topics can be found at the end of each story. Click through, read, enjoy, and share!
