Tuesday, July 23, 2024 - Delegate anxieties, curriculum realities & a shady meeting

What must it have been like for a Democratic Party delegate to keep a brave face outwardly while stressing the "known unknowns" internally? I spoke with Seth Taylor, a Georgia DNC delegate - proudly, he'll tell you, a delegate on the spectrum - who took the rollercoaster ride of uncertainty the past month. Hear how he weathered the debate debacle, its aftermath and the inevitable transition from "Joe" to "Kamala." ⁠Georgia NAACP chapter President Gerald Griggs⁠ also joined me today to weigh in on the magnitude of there being a black woman as a major political party's presumptive nominee, as well as Georgia's superintendent of schools' decision to ⁠pull state funding for AP African American studies⁠. Lastly, I've been so focused on the insanity of the 2024 Presidential cycle that I've kept this "open tab" in my mind (and laptop) on the ⁠brewing Georgia Elections Board scandal⁠: did they hold a meeting and pass policy in violation of Georgia law? One watchdog group believes so.
