Next Episode: Greek Influence on Birmingham, Alabama
Last year, the city of Birmingham, Alabama celebrated its 150th anniversary. 150 years ago, iron ore, coal and limestone defined Birmingham. Today, however, it may be more synonymous with the civil rights movement. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said of Birmingham, “I like to believe that the negative extremes of Birmingham's past will resolve into the positive and utopian extreme of her future, that the sins of a dark yesterday will be redeemed in the achievements of a bright tomorrow.” We had a chance to visit the Magic City, and we're here to tell you all about it.
