South Fulton County Blacks seek Autonomy

African Americans in unincorporated South Fulton County, Georgia, would like to create their own city, as their white counterparts have done in other metro Atlanta areas.  They are seeking better services, such as fire,  trash collection, and police protection in an area that's often the target of crime. Moreover, by forming a separate city, they could one day secede from the less-than-stellar Fulton County or Atlanta public schools by creating their own school system.  But most importantly,  they seek self-autonomy to avoid being annexed by Atlanta.  Kudos to these aspiring residents of Fulton County,  Georgia!
