A
Member

Creek.
Thank
you,
honourable
speaker.
I'd
like
to
take
you
back
in
time
to
a
bustling
black
community
with
a
beloved
eatery
at
the
heart
of
it
all
wise,
chicken
and
steak
would
stay
open.
Late
performers
would
come
after
their
shows
we're
talking
about
the
top
entertainers
of
the
day.
Elena
horne
count
bassey
louis
armstrong,
ella
fitzgerald,
sonora
rose,
hendricks
works
there
cooking
and
running
the
popular
diner.
A
A
One
can't
help
but
wonder
if
all
this
exposure
to
talent
had
an
impact
on
young
jimmy,
he
spent
his
summers
as
he
got
older,
playing
his
guitar
at
local
haunts
prepping
for
what
would
become
one
of
the
most
storied
careers
in
rock
and
roll
history,
the
career
of
jimi
hendrix.
Where
was
this
community
la
atlanta?
A
Yet,
despite
the
neighborhood's,
thriving
business
and
cultural
scene,
city
officials
voted
to
level
hogan's
alley
and
displace
its
many
residents
to
build
the
georgia
and
dunsmere
viaducts
this
black
history
month.
I
encourage
you
to
familiarize
yourself
with
the
incredible
history
of
hogan's
alley
and
the
ongoing
important
work
of
hogan's
alley
society.
