embrace, but also it became the approach out of necessity because atlanta, like so many cities had to deal with white flight, with a contract team economy. so it is a very complex circumstance, a part of why the african-american who took over the cities were not able to achieve all they hope by the time they actually gain power. i think that ms. mathews fears were borne out in politics and the political arena. >> i really liked your bottom-up approach to history. i think that's really valuable because it lends texture and an understanding of what actually happened. and it makes things seem more contingent and more contested than they were, then the sort of dominant narrative has. so where does the dominant narrative comes from? on the lawyers and thurgood marshall, are they just more prominent and is that what makes a dominant narrative voice that -- what explains that clicks >> well, a number of things i would say even i mention that my book is not just winners history. so the dominant narrative is consistent with winners history. of course we want to tell the history of the naacp lawyers, i've thur

sizable african-american middle class, many black colleges, and i thought that in part because the white city fathers always considered it a place of racial moderation, that it would be a good place with much to explore, dynamics, and the civil rights movement. >> what did you find? was it a success story? >> well, in some ways it was a success story including for many members of the black civil class coming of age after the landmark civil rights legislation of the 1960s, but the story that i tell in my book is a little bit more complicated. it also shows that for many african-americans in atlanta, a city that one would think would be a perfect place to tell a story about civil right's success, it wasn't all successful for everyone. there was a lot of failure including for a group of african-american women who were welfare right atavists. i tell their story in the third part of the book who challenged not only whites, but the black leadership in the 1970s saying that they had been left out of the successes of the civil right movements. >> when you use the word dissent in the title of the book

one, because i understood that so white city fathers viewed themselves as racial moderates, and two excessof the relatively large black no class. i thought that combination of factors, one would see a pretty rapid and pretty smooth transition from jim crow to a regime of civil rights. and i think that the premise that you articulate their and this idea of success in atlanta certainly is a story that can be told, and get i would emphasize that what atlanta was able to do better than many cities was -- so he was very keen with the business leaders in atlanta, were buried keen on minimizing violence and transitioning when there were crises in such a way that atlanta preserved its image as a moderate city in contrast to a birmingham or in contrast to little rock. for instance. so, it is the case that the schools in atlanta, once the school disaggregation case was actually filed in 1958, that the schools weren't desegregated via august of 1961, so as these things happened, that is it pretty short, a relatively short transition period and yet what i would emphasize is that desegregation occurred
