Georgia On Our Mind
Manage episode 448348141 series 3529242
Nat and Ang are joined by Nichola Hines, President of the League of Women Voters of Georgia. Questions, so many questions. And answers! What's it like to work in a passionate non-partisan organization in a major swing state during one of the most sharply partisan, politically charged, and democracy challenged eras in US history? What's up with the Georgia legislature? BTW, did ya know y'all have a conspiracy theorist in Congress?! Do you suppose democracy will endure in spite of the mess we’re in? Oh, and one more…is there such a thing as hope?
Just in time for election day, join the gals as they ponder a place like Georgia in a time like now with a hero like Nichola Hines.
