This week I am handing the mic to Aaron Strand from Behind the Slate who is sharing some wild Atlanta stories - like how the city's motion picture history dates back to 1895, how “Birth of Nation'' impacted the city’s cinema, how segregation and Jim Crow laws affected movie goers, and also covering cinema greats like the Lowes Grand, the Plaza, The Tara, and Coronet. Finishing off with Blaxploitation films of the 70s and historic preservation. You do.not.want.to.miss.this.
