Tom Houck experienced key moments of the Civil Rights Movement firsthand, and since those fateful days he has been keeping the spirit of racial justice alive in Atlanta, primarily through his civil rights bus tour.
Houck started the tour six years ago, spending his days driving around the city and teaching folks about the history of the Civil Rights Movement in Atlanta, sprinkled with personal anecdotes and sage wisdom. The reason for starting the tour, he said, was “a void” in Atlanta’s history books.
