How Atlanta’s hip-hop culture and politics are intertwined

In this episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Tia Mitchell, Greg Bluestein, Patricia Murphy and Bill Nigut look at the glittery premiere of the AJC’s first full-length documentary, ‘The South’s Got Something to Say,’ which focuses on the artists who made Atlanta the center of the rap universe, and how their music gave voice to the social and economic conditions of the Black community and became intertwined with politics. Plus, Marjorie Taylor Greene fumes after her motion to censure Rep. Rashida Tliab for alleged antisemitic actions and remarks gets a thumbs down from Democrats and Republicans in the House, including two of her colleagues in the Georgia GOP delegation. Then the team looks at the House vote which approves $14 billion in new funding for Israel but adds a measures demanding dollar for dollar cuts of the same amount to the IRS budget. Democrats see it as an unprecedented partisan effort by Republicans to undermine President Biden’s effort to beef up the IRS to go after tax cheats. And again, Marjorie Taylor Greene has a lot to say as she votes against the money for Israel. And later, hear answers questions from the listener mailbag, with calls from the 24-hour Politically Georgia Hotline at (404)526-AJCP.
