So many Atlantans do not know the story of The Herndons - who they were, the careers and companies associated with them and most importantly, the lasting legacy on this city. This history isn’t just about a family - it’s about gender, race, slavery, entrepreneurship, modern women, sexuality and even the Civill Rights movement. They are my favorite historical family and I can’t wait to share this with you.

This week, we’re talking about a period in Atlanta and Georgia’s history called Reconstruction. To put it simply, the period after the Civil War, our then-divided country has to figure out how to make themselves whole again. We're covering Presidential Reconstruction, Congressional Reconstruction, the role of Atlanta in this time and the story of the 33 expelled legislators.

This week, we’re covering a darker period in Atlanta’s history - the rebirth of the Ku Klux Klan. The Klan reigned terror throughout the United States, first in the period immediately after the Civil War and then again in the first decade of the new century. You will be blown away at how many homes, buildings, places and names in this city have ties to the organization.

Did you know The Temple is the oldest synagogue? Starting off in rented halls with a borrowed Torah, it was during the first Jewish wedding in 1876, that the Rabbi calls for a formal congregation. They would see two world wars, the lynching of Leo Frank, the resurgence of the KKK, the Civil Rights movement and the infamous bombing that took out a 16-foot hole in their place of worship.
