Dr. King's gesture at the August 23, 1963 March on Washington is frozen in metal in Old Fourth Ward where Freedom Parkway crosses Boulevard. Citymouse Boyd Lewis mourns that Dr. King's legacy of revolutionary peaceful resistance to totalitarian oppression at home and unrestrained war abroad has been boiled down to feel good dreaming and corporate shilling every Black History Month. Atlanta, you have forgotten much.

Forget the stoopid candy colored tangerine flake cars representing Cabbagetown This is the real thing. Esther Lefever, a mountain girl. settled in Cabbagetown in the 1960s and started The Patch, a community center. She was a singer of mountain ballads. Esther died of cancer in the 1980s and today, there's a park named for her. The meth'd out morons who get all juicy over these stoopid cars have no idea what I'm talking about. Real Atlantans do.

Come to the opening and meet the citymouse (Boyd Lewis) if you dare!

Citymouse Boyd Lewis took this photo of a 16-year-old Wayne Williams (yes, that Wayne Williams) in 1974 when he started up a low-watt radio station at his parents home in Dixie Hills. The alleged child killer was interested in giving black musicians airplay without going through the media of the white man. Was Brother Wayne the "Atlanta Monster?" Victims' parents doubt it. So does the Citymouse
