Atlanta’s leaders are rethinking plans to install a statue representing a Native American man lauded as a “co-founder of Georgia ”
The Chief Tomochichi statue was conceived as the centerpiece of a park celebrating civil rights-era heroes. Its placement is being reconsidered, however, now that city council members have a fuller understanding of historical facts about the Muscogee man who signed a 1733 treaty launching the Georgia colony, Councilman Michael Julian Bond told The Associated Press.
