Show Notes

Before integration in 1970, black students in Newnan went to Central High School, and white students attended Newnan High. Once Central students became Newnan High School students, it was a difficult transition. In this episode, former Central students Brad Hill, JoAnne Hill, Robert Hines, and Tommy Johnson join David and Derrick to talk about their experiences as student-athletes making the transition to Newnan High.
