Unveiling C.T. Martin Again? Why?


 

by C. Henry Adams

I asked the question in this manner.  Unveiling C.T. Martin Again? Why?

C. T. Martin attended E.R. Carter Elementary School which was once called Ashby Street Elementary School in 1943.  By 1944, the name changed to E. R. Carter Elementary School. 

When Clarence Terrell Martin & his Family moved to the 10th District,  I was a little boy in the 1970s.
 I don't remember much about City Councilman Ira Jackson, but since 1990 at the age of 20 years old,  C. T. Martin always stood out in my mind.

In fact, I became a fraternal brother of C. T. Martin & Prince Hall - Gate City Lodge Number 42 while visiting  Atlanta, Georgia.  In the early 1990s, I was truly honored to discover that Marion Lewis Adams, Sr and C. T. Martin both hailed from the same large lodge as I became a member.

Mr. Martin was always considered highly educated and secretive.  To read that he was a graduate of Booker T. Washington High School where my Mother, Emma K. Smith Adams graduated from and my Father attended night school greatly inspired me.

C. T. Martin was a legend that inspired other legends to come into existence. 

Particularly, the
Honorable Andrea L. Boone.

Instead of mentioning C. T. Martin again. 

Accomplishments should go to
Andrea L. Boone.

 A graduate of Frederick Douglass High School.   

 A graduate of Tuskegee University. 

 A  member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority. 

A life-long member of Rush Memorial Congregational Church.


The Honorable City Council Lady of the 10 District for the City of Atlanta, Georgia.
