Lions and Tigers and Bears O MY (Reply to this comment)
by steichje
I am white. I live in a northern town. At one time in the early 90s I wanted so much to move to Atlanta, but it didn't work out for me. But, my family and I spent as much of our "free" time as we could in Atlanta. We are not rich--although I amde a decent living then. I have these questions to ask--Why do you fear black people? Are they not your equals, even if they are poor? Why do you want to wear a bullet proof vest on the "empty streets"? I felt safer in the Techwood ghetto and on MLK or Ponce de Leon than I ever felt in the cracker suburbs of Tampa/St. Pete. I just cannot understand why white people are so dreadfully afraid that black people are going to hurt them just because they are white. Makes no damn sense to me at all.

What I've retained from your review is that you probably shouldn't go into the bad part of town which is true of any large metropolitan area.
You didn't see any white people. Atlanta does have a very large and thriving black population but it also has a very large Jewish population and believe me, there are plenty of people who live there who are not black.
For this review to be helpful, you'd have to tell me what you think a traveler should see and do in the city. You said you had a good dinner at Underground Atlanta and you went to a teen club. Aside from that, this review is lacking.

...that your girl scout leader exposed you to a little more than just the ghetto and the nightlife!
Atlanta has much to offer and I hope you got to see some of it!
