Follow students at the Center for Collaborative Journalism as we work to rediscover the lost history of the former Roxy Theatre
Note from the editor

Students in Civic & Community Journalism at Mercer University’s Center for Collaborative Journalism are working on a project to rediscover the lost history of the Roxy Theatre. The quonset-style building once served as a key entertainment venue for African-Americans in Macon, Ga. Today the building is empty and its place in history is unmarked.
