<br/><br/> During 1974 and 1975, Atlanta was one of the top convention cities in the United States, but the city was also known as the nation's "murder capital." The contradiction in the discourse on hospitality and violence is the focus of this research. The discussion of hospitality by business leaders and elected officials was used to unify support for growth, but a separate discourse on violence had unfortunate ethical consequences. This discourse tended to divide whites from blacks and suburban dwellers from central city residents. Little effort was made to seek common ground in the discourse on hospitality and violence. - Reproduced
