This talk explores the city of Atlanta before, during, and after the Civil War siege laid waste to what was called "the greatest prize in the Confederacy" for military capture. Yet, in the aftermath, a new iteration of the city emerged from the smoldering ruins. With newly freed people pouring into the city, contested visions of the city's core character emerged and would remain contested for generations to come.Jeffery Ogbar, History Department, UConn
