Hyatt | Hotel of Hope
In 1967 MLK Jr. set his sights on Atlanta to deliver his famous "Where do we go from here?" speech. With the city still in the throes of segregation, almost every hotel turned his congregation away. Only the Hyatt Regency Atlanta opened their doors — His "Hotel of Hope."
50 years later we invited musician Tarriona "Tank" Ball to pay tribute to that moment.
