The newlynamed James Brown Boulevard salutes this city's famous native son. Just a short drive east ofAugusta is Thomson, the birthplace and final resting place of Blind Willie McTell, one ofAmerica's most revered blues musicians of the '30s. Coastal Georgia blends a rich African American legacy with the allure of the oceanside. Brunswick and the Golden Isles, renowned today for sunny beaches and recreational variety, also offer a glimpse at plantation life in the black experience. Hofwyl-Broadfield Plantation remains much as it was nearly two centuries ago, although it ceased harvesting rice, its primary crop, in 1915. HofwylBroadfield is now a State Historic Site where visitors can examine dwellings, a museum, exhibits and artifacts which chronicle the history of the slaves who cultivated the rice fields and later settled in communities as free men and women. Brunswick and the Golden Isles are also the home of the Sea Island Festival, an annual celebration of black culture and heritage. Neptune Park, a popular leisure-time spot, is named for Neptune Small, a freedman and Civil War hero. And Selden Park was once the site of The Selden Normal and Industrial Institute, which opened in 1903 as one of the finest black educational facilities of its time. Savannah, the coastal city where Georgia was established as an English colony in 1733, offers additional opportunities for insight into the African American experience. The Beach Institute, established in 1865 to educate newly-free black citizens in Savannah, now spotlights African American arts and crafts. Black culture and heritage are celebrated as well at the King-Tisdell Cottage, a restored Victorian-era home. The First African Baptist Church, founded in 1773, and one of the several historically significant churches in Savannah, is said to be the oldest, continuously active, autonomously developed black church in America.
