What a treat to have Thornton Kennedy as this week’s very special guest! As a 7th generation native Atlantan, Thornton knows the history of Buckhead probably better than anyone else. Great historical stories about how Peachtree Road was named, how a major civil rights issue in the 1950s was played out at Bobby Jones Golf Course and how Peachtree Road was the dividing line between the haves and have nots in Buckhead. What does former US Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall have in common with Atlanta? Gotta listen to these great stories to find out!
