Shirley Franklin, Atlanta’s first Black female mayor has advice for Kamala Harris
Manage episode 434198743 series 2119483
Shirley Franklin’s parallels with Kamala Harris are significant: Franklin became the first African American woman to be elected mayor of a major southern American city.
On today’s episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, the AJC’s Bill Nigut and Tia Mitchell hosts ask the former mayor if she learned lessons during her campaign that may be of value for Vice President Harris’ campaign.
Later, Josh McKoon, the chairman of Georgia’s Republican Party joins the podcast to discuss how state Republicans plan to counter the issues Democrats will showcase at their convention next week.
Plus, Georgia Democrats are frustrated that Governor Kemp turned down a federal; grant to give low-income families with school children a helping hand with buying groceries. Kemp was one of about a dozen governors to turn down the aid, which was established to replace the school meals that students don’t get during summer breaks.
