The stories that needed to be told!

I’m a Georgia History teacher and grew up in Georgia (even attended the University of Georgia) not learning 1/2 of these stories! These are the stories that absolutely needed to be told! I swear this podcast should be part of the 8th grade Georgia Studies curriculum!!! Thank you for taking the time to research these dark parts of our state history and for telling the stories so eloquently and so respectfully. This podcast is fantastic. I’ve texted so many other history nerd friends of mine this week recommending it.
My own mom was one of the ones who moved to Forsyth County in the early 2000’s without a clue about the past there. I taught school in Cobb County for 15 years without realizing that the site of the Leo Frank hanging was across the interstate from Andretti’s. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I needed this podcast in my life! I feel like it wove together so many connections and stories that I had only heard bits and pieces of. It gave me a more thorough understanding of Leo Frank that I can share with my students. It made me realize that a lot more needs to be added to our 8th grade standards (including not reducing Tom Watson to simply “the voice for the farmers…”). I could go on forever here, but simply THANK YOU for taking the time to tell these important stories.

Modern Historical Narrative

I enjoyed BT’s storytelling style. He includes a blend of historical primary and secondary sources along with a local lens.
