The 2023 SGA Magazine is here! This year’s issue features a new member spotlight, an article from the Digitize Habersham initiative and from the team at Georgia State University digitizing AFL-CIO civil rights records. Read the full issue on our website, feel free to share with anyone and everyone, www.soga.org/publications/magazine or click on the link in our bio. Thanks to our incredible contributors for dedicating their time to writing up something for us.

On this day in 1966, residents of the Vine City neighborhood in Atlanta, Georgia protested their living conditions, which included a visit from civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. Bill Wilson photographs, VIS 99, Kenan Research Center at the Atlanta History Center.
