...though it wasn't quite as hot this time around, compared to last time. We arrived a day and a half before the Catalyst conference last week, which gave us a chance to do some exploring. Enjoyed lunch at Sweet Auburn Market, where the only other Asians we saw in this otherwise black neighborhood were all behind the meat and veggie counters, taking orders next to signs that read, "Buy your whole pig here". Then we visited the Martin Luther King Historic Site, Jimmy Carter Center, and World Of Coca-Cola -- three worthwhile stops that took me on an emotional roller coaster ride...from the literal feeling of a "heavy heart" as I roamed through multimedia exhibits that described vividly the events of the Civil Rights Movement; to marveling at the ambitious humanitarian projects undertaken by the Carter Center; and finally reaching a "high" at day's end with a lively and bubbly tour of Cokeland.
Hey, A and I created this Pop Art!
