A NEARLY INVISIBLE LANDMARK

Many of you have driven by this house at 1102 Academy Avenue in Dublin, Georgia.  You probably have never noticed it nor have you realized  the significance of this endangered home, nearly engulfed by intruding trees, climbing kudzu and clinging vines.  The house was the home of Zimmie Shelton, grandmother of the legendary, producer, director and actor Spike Lee.   As of 2016, the property is still owned by the heirs of Mrs. Shelton and her father, Phil Jackson.
