History & Context
History Atlanta has a history that is deeply entwined with the broader narratives of the American South, the Civil War, and the Civil Rights Movement. Originally inhabited by indigenous peoples such as the Creek and Cherokee, the area that is now Atlanta was a hub of trade and culture before European settlers arrived in the 18th century. Following the forced removal of the Cherokee in the 1830s, the area was settled and began to develop rapidly. By 1837, the Georgia General Assembly decided to establish a railroad hub at Terminus, a settlement where multiple railroads converged. This site would eventually be renamed Atlanta, inspired by the Western and Atlantic Railroad, which ran through the city.
As the railroads grew, so did the city’s importance as a transportation center in the southeastern United States. By the time of the Civil War, Atlanta had developed into a thriving industrial city, producing war supplies and serving as a logistical base for the Confederacy. However, in 1864, during the Civil War, Union General William Tecumseh Sherman’s infamous March to the Sea saw Atlanta fall to the Union forces. The city was largely destroyed by fire and military action, and its future seemed uncertain.
