In the years after the death of Martin Luther King Jr., Black Athens residents have been elected to serve on both the Athens City Council and Athens Independent School District Board of Trustees.Â
The latest are Councilwoman Sytonia Freeman and Trustee Bryan Barker. Both paused to reflect on the impact of King s life and the difference he made for the Black community.
Freeman was elected in November to represent Place 3 on the City Council. She said the observances in honor of King are fitting in light of what he meant to the Civil Rights Movement.
