Inside Atlanta's "Stop Cop City" Movement (w/ Jamie Peck)

This episode originally aired on September 8, 2024. Get new episodes early at patreon.com/CurrentAffairs!

Jamie Peck is a writer, podcaster, and activist who has been involved with the "Stop Cop City" movement. Her recent presentation about the movement can be seen here. In it she explains what the "Cop City" plan in Atlanta is, how a movement to resist it came together, and the vast, alarming repression that that movement has been met with. Today, Jamie joins to tell us why the fight over Cop City in Atlanta affects all of us, and how the resistance movement successfully joined environmental activists and BLM activists, plus reformers and radicals, in a way that provides a template for good left organizing that pursues a "diversity of tactics."

Our previous interview on this topic with the ACLU's Christopher Bruce, which focused on the criminal legal case, can be found here.
