Soul City: Ghost town of multi-racial Utopia in North Carolina could be revived

At a glance, Soul City may seem like a ghost town - with an abandoned healthcare clinic, broken windows, cracked asphalt and walls curtained with creeping ivy. But in the 1970s, Soul City was built on the dream of equality and opportunity for Black families in North Carolina. Today, few remnants offer clues to the community's past. Decaying wooden street signs etched with names like Freedom Circle and Liberation Road show the streets of Soul City were originally meant to pave a way to something greater. A tall concrete pillar with the words 'Soul City' stands as a monument to all the town hoped to achieve. In the archives of Black history, many dreams have gone unrealized – snuffed out by forces like urban renewal, racism and inequality. However, some believe the dream of Soul City can still impact the next generation. Ful Story: https://www.wral.com/story/soul-city-...
