Always a joy to have Melita Easters - executive director at the Georgia WIN List - on the show, and today was no exception. As of this episode posting she's interviewing author Elaine Weiss, whose latest book, "Spell Freedom," looks back at the underground schools that built the civil rights movement, The discussion is one previously scheduled at the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library. Jennifer Schuessler first reported on this and two otther book event cancellations in late February for the New York Times, "raising questions about whether leadership changes at the National Archives and Records Administration were affecting programming at the 13 presidential libraries it oversees."So a speaking event for books on civil rights, homelessness and climate change have no home at the Carter Presidential Library under the Trump presidency. The National Archives chalked it up to "facing staff cuts," with fuure Carter Library events "now needs approval from Washington for all programming."Whatever the case, the broad and thorough "reach" of the Trump administration into every nook-and-cranny of federal governance is obviously concerning. Weiss' book is notable in that - as we speak - Trump and his Department of Education head is seeking to dismantle the federal agency altogether - which puts more power at the state level. What could go wrong except the return of "Lost Cause" history curriculum like that taught to current GOP Senate leaders like Marsha Blackburn and Lindsey Graham?Well Melita and I discussed the Carter Library / National Archives concern, along with a host of other topics (as we usually do). She's rightfully proud of previous WIN Leadership Academy products like Senator Kim Jackson, who managed to craft productive legislation to address homelessness (unlike that of Houston Gaines, who sought to score political points and exacerbate the problem in larger cities). We talk Lucy McBath, Stacy Abrams & so much more.PLUS: The AJC's Patricia Murphy and Jeremy Redmon both dive into the renaming of "Fort Benning" near Columbus, Georgia, and how clumsily Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth manages to dishonor the man and family he chose to rename the base (simply because he shared a last name with a 'mediocre' Confederate general and secessionist slave owner) and the Army veteran and wife whose names were previously affixed to the base.

Applications for grants are open to individuals and charitable organizations in the 10 counties served by Jackson EMC. STORY 2: Lawrenceville Teen Earns Spot In Prestigious Dance Classes in NYC Thirteen-year-old Zharria Musette from Lawrenceville will embark on a six-week intensive dance training in New York City this summer, securing spots at the prestigious Joffrey Ballet School and the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre School of Dance after successful auditions.

STORY 3: Fallen State Trooper Remembered During Georgia Gwinnett College Commencement Jimmy Cenescar, a dedicated law enforcement officer and student at Georgia Gwinnett College, tragically lost his life in a pursuit while on duty. He had anticipated his graduation as a significant milestone, overshadowing even his completion of trooper school. However, Jimmy's dreams were cut short by his untimely death. In a poignant ceremony, his brother Joel accepted Jimmy's diploma on his behalf, amid tears of both pride and sorrow.

We'll be right back. Break 2: TOM WAGES STORY 4: Lawmaker mothers with children in tow are still few in numbers but bring missing perspective More women in Georgia's Legislature are reshaping the Capitol's landscape, but their representation is still below parity with the population. Challenges like childcare and distance from the Capitol persist, particularly for mothers with young children. Rep. Anne Allen Westbrook exemplifies this, navigating long days away from her family in Savannah during legislative sessions. Sen. Kim Jackson, a new parent, highlights the difficulties of balancing lawmaking with childcare responsibilities. Recent changes allowing campaign funds for childcare aim to alleviate some barriers to public service. Despite these strides, women lawmakers continue to advocate for inclusive policies, recognizing the importance of diverse perspectives in shaping legislation. STORY 5: Water-hogging data centers flagged in latest ‘Dirty Dozen' environmental watchdog report The Port of Savannah, a major container terminal, has experienced increased shipping traffic since the deepening of the waterway in 2022. However, the Georgia Water Coalition's Dirty Dozen 2024 report highlights the unintended consequences of record economic development, such as the threat posed by new data centers to Georgia's rivers. These data centers strain the electric grid and require large amounts of water for cooling, impacting the environment. The report also raises concerns about water resources in the coastal region, exacerbated by the deepening of the Savannah Harbor, and warns of threats to surface and groundwater. Additionally, the report expresses ongoing concerns about the Okefenokee Swamp amid plans for a titanium mine nearby. We'll be back in a moment.

Learning about new and improved ways to navigate archaic structures in our line of business is always very interesting. So, this week, I wanted to take you on a deep dive into blockchain entertainment financing --- refined by entrepreneurs and producers Kim Jackson and Jake Craven of Breaker.io.Kim is a member of the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, co-owner of SingularDTV, and CEO of its umbrella company, Breaker Studios, where Jake serves as Vice President of Content Partnerships.Breaker, founded in 2017, is a leading blockchain development and services company in the Media & Entertainment industry. It provides an innovative, intuitive, and user-friendly end-to-end royalty management platform for independent creators and distributors. Simply put, it uses blockchain and cloud-based technology to enable creators to maximize their revenue by automating revenue collection, backend accounting, and royalty payments while ensuring transparent reporting. I discovered Breaker when I stumbled upon Alex Winter's award-winning feature documentary, Trust Machine: The Story Of Blockchain produced by Kim. Trust Machine trailer. The film explains how Blockchain technology is already being used to change the world, fighting income inequality, the refugee crisis, and world hunger. If you are new to Blockchain or have felt overwhelmed by all the information Google threw at you in an attempt to learn the rudimentary theory of Blockchain and cryptocurrency, check out Vinay Gupta's 'A Brief History of Blockchain, Kim referenced during our chat.Breaker's concept is definitely the future of entertainment finance and, dare I say, global financial transacting.Being ahead of its time, Breaker is introducing products that allow for media revenue and royalty to be tracked via blockchain technology, which allows for an open-source network of data.Basically, Breaker provides a better model for instantaneous recording and eliminating mistrust, especially for independent companies that want to sustain a business and revenue model for themselves. I wish we had more time to continue the conversation because it was packed with filmtrepreneurial and blockchain knowledge bombs, and we could all do with the extra crash course. But I made sure to ask many important questions for you guys from today's experts.So, enjoy my conversation with Kim Jackson and Jake Craven.
Today's Founder Focus Guest is Katherine McConnell of Brighte, Australia's leader in solar finance and one-stop-shop for sustainable upgrade solutions. Katherine talks about the conditions that lead her to start Brighte, and the ingredients professionally and personally that drove it to happen. Katherine has raised $145Mil in equity from investors such as Grok Ventures, the investment company of Mike and Anni Cannon-Brookes, Kim Jackson and Scott Farquhar's Skip Capital, AirTree Ventures and Singapore Venture Capital firm Qualgro. Kim talks through this process and working with venture capital in general. In addition to the equity raised, Katherine and her team have issued $1Bil in debt financing for clean energy loans for solar and battery technology. It has not all been easy sailing, and Katherine talks through her approach to leadership and creating a culture that can rapidly adjust and change.

In a recent incident, a Lilburn resident received multiple calls claiming he had to pay $9,000 to clear an arrest warrant. The scammer initially posed as a Gwinnett Sheriff's Office agent and received payment in Bitcoin. Subsequent calls claimed to be from Gwinnett Police Chief J.D. McClure, but no additional transfers were made. The police department emphasizes that they will never ask for payment over the phone and advises residents to be cautious of immediate payment demands, unsolicited calls or emails, and sharing personal or financial information. If scammed, residents should report the crime to the police and refer to the provided phone scam warning information.…….Read more about this at gwinnettdailypost.com Story 5: primates A study involving the mapping of DNA from over 800 individuals of 233 primate species has identified millions of mutations related to human diseases. The research provides valuable insights into the human genome and the causes of diseases. The study used a deep learning algorithm called PrimateAI-3D to analyze the genomic data. The findings revealed complex genetic relationships among primate species and shed light on the evolution of baboons. The research also suggests interbreeding occurred between early modern humans, Neanderthals, and Denisovans. Furthermore, the study aids in conservation efforts by identifying species in need of protection. The catalog of primate genomic information has also contributed to understanding unique mutations in humans. Story 6: cats Cats often knock things off tables and countertops to seek attention or to play. To prevent this behavior, ensure your cat's needs are met, including sufficient food and attention. Combat boredom by regularly changing their toys and using puzzle toys for mental stimulation. Discourage them from accessing tables and countertops by making them unappealing and removing enticing items. You can also use deterrents that emit unpleasant sounds or puffs of air when the cat jumps up. These deterrents are effective as cats won't associate you with the unpleasant experience. By implementing these strategies, you can discourage your cat from engaging in this behavior. .……back in a moment Commercial: ESOG- Gen Expo- Ingles 4 Story 7: smith Jackson Smith, a recent graduate of Mountain View High School, has committed to the baseball program at Bryan College in Tennessee.

A Doraville police officer has been arrested in connection with the death of a 16-year-old Norcross teen whose body was found off State Route 316 last week. Gwinnett County police are still investigating how Susana Morales died. She went missing last July while walking home and her body was found near the Gwinnett-Barrow county line on February 6. Gwinnett law enforcement officials have not released details of how Doraville Police Officer Miles Bryant was involved in the Morales case. He has not been charged with killing Morales, but he has been charged with false report of a crime and concealing the death of another. Bryant is a Norcross resident, according to Gwinnett County police. Doraville police said they were notified on Monday afternoon that arrest warrants would be served against Bryant. Doraville officials said Bryant is no longer employed by the city's police department. A new bill would prohibit transgender Georgians under 18 from receiving gender-affirming hormone therapy or surgery. The Bill's main sponsor is Senator Clint Dixon, a Republican from Gwinnett County. The eight-page bill includes a long list of procedures that would be barred, including gender-affirming hormone therapy and surgical procedures. The legislation includes some exceptions, including for people who are “born with a medically verifiable disorder of sex development” and for the treatment of “a physical disorder … injury … or illness that is certified by a physician.” A physician who provides any of the services to a person under 18 would be considered to have committed “unprofessional conduct” and would be subject to discipline by their licensing board. The bill would also require school employees to inform parents if their child is transgender. Medical groups, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, support gender-affirming care for transgender children when the physician and family deem it appropriate. One unintended consequence of the bill could be the prohibition of circumcision, said state Senator Kim Jackson, a Democrat from Stone Mountain. That's because the bill includes a provision that would prohibit the removal of “any healthy or nondiseased body part or tissue.” Circumcision is a common practice and is a required or strongly encouraged in some religions, including Judaism and Islam. A statue of Martin Luther King Jr. that will be featured at the Rodney Cook Sr. Peace Park will reside in Atlanta, but it has major Gwinnett County connections. Local philanthropists Clyde and Sandra Strickland are helping fund the statue — which will depict Dr. King in a pastor's robe and holding an open Bible — and longtime Gwinnett artist Kathy Fincher is one of the sculptors. Fincher and the Stricklands are lifetime friends, and their collaboration on the MLK statue was born out of a mutual desire to depict the civil rights leader in a way he had not been previously shown. Kathy Fincher wanted to emphasize the role faith played in Dr. King's life. That's why she wanted to show him in a pastor's robe, looking upward while delivering his famous "I've Been to the Mountaintop" speech, which was also the wish of the National Monument Foundation. The sculpture, which she is working on with Athens artist Stan Mullin, also shows a Bible open to scripture about Moses. The statue will be unveiled on April 1 followed by a World Peace Revival "Peace Walk." Clyde Strickland said the sculpture will not only make its mark on that day, but for decades to come. Legislation introduced into the Georgia House of Representatives Monday marks the latest effort to legalize sports betting in Georgia. House Bill 380, sponsored by state Representative Marcus Wiedower, a Republican from Watkinsville, is being supported by the Metro Atlanta Chamber. Like sports betting legislation floated in past years in the General Assembly, Wiedower's bill calls for sports betting to be overseen by the Georgia Lottery Corp. Unlike previous sports betting bills, the new measure would allow for two types of sports betting licenses. It calls for awarding up to 16 Type 1 licenses to companies that would provide online sports betting services. A second variety of licenses – known as Type 2 – would go to brick-and-mortar businesses in Georgia that would offer in-person sports betting. Sports betting legislation in past years has been limited strictly to online betting. Licensees would pay 15% of their adjusted gross incomes to the state in the form of a “privilege tax” that would be set aside to help fund education in Georgia. The bill sets out penalties for violators and includes provisions requiring companies involved in sports betting to offer programs to help problem gamblers. North Gwinnett Middle School orchestra teacher Sarah Ball has been honored with the 2023 Elizabeth A. H. Green School Educator Award. According to Gwinnett County Public Schools officials, Ball earned the recognition "for her profound impact on string education in her community, state, and beyond." The honor is a national award presented annually by the American String Teachers Association to one school string teacher with a current and distinguished career in a school orchestral setting. From her award nomination letter, her co-teacher Amy Clement stated, “… she is a passionate music educator who enjoys sharing her love of teaching with others. She has recruited countless numbers of students, mentored many student teachers, inspired hundreds of music educators, and of the highest compliment, she has even had several former students become orchestra teachers to follow in her footsteps.” As a creative mind and innovative advocate for string education, Ball has connected, inspired, taught, coached, and developed current and future generations of string students and teachers. According to GCPS officials, Ball has not only been a leader in Gwinnett County schools "but also shared her light beyond her school district with incomparable engagement and motivational strategies in state, local, regional, and national presentations, and guest clinician performances. Her service to the profession is greatly valued and appreciated." The award reviewers also noted these activities as incredibly influential – including serving as GMEA orchestra division chair, as Georgia ASTA president, and as a member-at-large on the national ASTA board. The impact that she has made in guest conducting roles not only influences those students in the ensembles, but also their teachers and families. Ball will receive the award during a presentation at the national conference in Orlando in March. Cherokee Bluff already knew Seckinger wasn't an ordinary first-year boys basketball program after the regular season meeting between the two teams in December. In case the host Bears had forgotten, however, the Jaguars gave them a reminder during their Region 8-AAAA Tournament quarterfinal Monday night at Cherokee Bluff. Seckinger got balanced scoring and held off multiple Cherokee Bluff attempts at a rally to earn the program's first state tournament bid with a 65-54 victory. Carter Watkins led Seckinger with 15 points, 10 rebounds and three assists, but had plenty of help, with three other players in double figures and a fourth nearly joining them. That total team effort not only put the Jaguars in the state tournament, it also moved them into the region semifinals, where they will take on Number 4 state-ranked Madison County on Thursday night.

Thursday on Political Rewind: Gov. Brian Kemp is preparing to unveil his proposal for reforming Georgia's citizens' arrest law. The current law stirred controversy in the aftermath of the shooting of 25-year-old Ahmaud Arbery, a Black jogger, by white men who claim they were detaining him in response to a series of break-ins in a residential neighborhood outside of Brunswick. Our panel discussed the political motive behind the push to reform the law. State Senator Rev. Kim Jackson said while she was glad to see progress on this issue, there is still a long way to go in reforming criminal justice. “Here's the truth about the situation; this is really low-hanging fruit," Jackson said. "From a progressive standpoint, there is so much more around criminal justice issues that we need to address and actually make real change [to] protect significantly more Black lives than this bill does." Also, the Fulton County district attorney and the Georgia secretary of state's office each launch investigations into the actions of former President Trump. The investigations look into Trump's alleged efforts to coerce Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, Kemp and others to overturn the results of Georgia's presidential election. In Washington, D.C., impeachment managers used harrowing audio and video of the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol in their arguments against former President Donald Trump. But will Republican members of Congress budge, as Democrats hope? Panelists: Sen. Rev. Kim Jackson — State Representative (D-Stone Mountain) Mayor Julie Smith — Mayor of Tifton Dr. Amy Steigerwalt — Professor of Political Science, Georgia State University Kevin Riley — Editor, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
