It’s homecoming season in Atlanta, so it’s time to show up and show out on the yard. Morris Brown College’s week of festivities runs from Sept. 27 through Oct. 4.
The cross-generational celebration will showcase a sea of purple and black Wolverines at the historic HBCU campus. And while the school no longer has a football team, this year’s homecoming still promises to be bigger and better than ever with a message honoring “where we have been and spotlight where we are going.”
