Black History All Year 2020 . . 1963 at the age of 18, Clarke participated in the March on Washington where she saw and was inspired by Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King. Clarke graduated from Howard University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology in 1968. She then attended the University of Pennsylvania and earned her master’s degree in 1969. . . After teaching political science at Talladega College in Alabama for nearly a decade, in 1978 Shirley Clarke Franklin was appointed by Mayor Maynard Jackson to the post of Commissioner of Cultural Affairs for the City of Atlanta. When Jackson was succeeded by Mayor Andrew Young, she was named Chief Administrative Officer and City Manager. Franklin gained notoriety as one of the officials who helped bring the Olympic Games to Atlanta in 1992. . . After the election Mayor Franklin focused primarily on paying off the enormous city debt. In order to fight the deficit, she cut city spending beginning with her own salary and that of her staff. Despite reducing the deficit she improved city services and hired more police and firefighters. Time Magazine named Franklin one of the five best big-city mayors in 2005. Later in 2005, Franklin ran for reelection and with support from the business community, and won nearly 90% of the vote. During her second term she focused on improving the city’s educational system. She also led the effort to have the Martin Luther King Papers housed at Morehouse College rather than sold at auction. Budget problems remained, however, and in 2008, when the Atlanta City Council refused to enact tax increases, Franklin announced more cuts and layoffs. . . #atlanta #atlantamayor #keshialancebottoms #staceyabrams #aps #edgewood #batterypark #phillipsarena #statefarmarena #oldatlanta #childrenofoldatlanta #atlantatechvillage #atltech #collegegrants (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_fdmy4AUPj/?igshid=1sfattkjto4dy
