This is my New Media Project for my English 1102 class at Georgia State University. This interview provides a greater insight on Atlanta’s constant reinventing of itself and what this means to its citizens. Special thanks to Mr. Donald Rooney and the Atlanta History Center for making this interview possible.

Thesis: Atlanta’s rise from the ashes after its destruction during the Civil War incited a spirit of “resurgens,” of rising again, that affects the city and its citizens’s development even today.
