This episode is a joint episode of The Neighborhood Watch Podcast and The King Williams Podcast. In this interview, I talk to Atlanta data-journalist Sylvia Johnson on Georgia's recent anti-CRT bills. Sylvia wrote about the 5 current bills sitting in the Georgia legislature for my most recent newsletter edition entitled "Georgia's Anti-Critical Race Theory Bills". We also talk about the role of organizations like The Heritage Foundation have played in drafting Georgia and other states' similar bills.
