The 'Georgia Diagnosis' - some bipartisan, some hyper-partisan: the Docter (Au) is in
On this King holiday, a checkup on America’s ‘civil rights’ health: not well, not but done
Pundit, former Representative and founder at the Center For Strong Public Schools, Alicia Thomas Searcy joined The Ron Show Monday.
On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Ron takes a hard but hopeful look at the state of civil rights in America with Alicia Thomas Searcy, former Georgia state representative, CEO of Morgan Enterprises, and founder of the Center for Strong Public Schools.
The conversation explores how Dr. King’s vision holds up amid rising white nationalist rancor directly from The White House, attacks on diversity, equity, and inclusion, and growing concerns about accountability in government. Alicia breaks down what DEI really means, why silence in the face of extremism is dangerous, and how economic pressures like affordability and healthcare are shaping today’s political landscape.
A well-written response to JD Vance’s “hall pass” to white people was also worthy of a share today, from Columbus Dispatch op/ed writer Amelia Robinson, too.
The hour also examines the fallout from Georgia’s election interference case and what it could cost Fulton County taxpayers.
The second half of the show, Ron reviews statements from today’s MLK Day events at the new Ebenezer Baptist Church – from Governor Brian Kemp (virtually), along with Atlanta mayor Andre Dickens and the Reverend Senator Raphael Warnock.
