Suber Archives Specialist Felecia Moore will give a presentation on the historic Hamilton Road community in LaGrange. Hamilton Road in LaGrange, Georgia is scheduled to be widened beginning Spring 2022. The demolition of several homes and businesses in the historic African American community began in 2021, almost forty years after it was initially proposed. The community is trying to preserve the stories of the community.
