In an effort to preserve some of the history of our community, The Times is displaying photos of Henry County from the past. If you can tell us anything about the photo shown above, use this form. In the next edition, we’ll reveal the details of the picture and notes readers send to us.
This photo from 2009 shows a collapsed wall on Griffin Street in McDonough where The Neighborhood Lot is now located.
Please promote healing and unity. No one wants to see how racist Henry county used to be.. GOD created us all. We were not born to hate… “Its taught”
How is a photo of three white men racist? Your comment is a prime example of reverse racism., and you bring GOD into it too? Racism works both ways. Promote healing and unity by stopping all forms of racism, stop screaming racism about EVERYTHING, and stop “teaching” it yourself.
Ms. Brenda, you are right in your statement especially about racism, it does go BOTH ways. I remember back in the 50’s, I had a discussion with an African-American about relations with my last name from the Bronx, of all places; AND CIVILIZED as well. The word Racism has been over used and as such has lost its true meaning. My GGrandmother was a Turnipseed; her father a physican of Bear Creek, GA.
