Olympics Out of Cobb (OOOC) was a grassroots movement resisting the decision by the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games (ACOG) to hold the preliminary volleyball competition of the 1996 Olympic Games in Cobb County. Protestors borrowed tactics from groups like the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT UP) and pledged to protest all the way to the Games if necessary. ACT UP members are pictured here at a protest in Woodruff Park in February 1994.
