Legislation on assisted living community referrals, making Atlanta area ballots nonpartisan; New documentary on life of W.E.B. Du Bois

View descriptionShare

On today’s "Closer Look," in the final hours of the Georgia Legislative Session, we hear about two pieces of legislation that could have a significant impact on the way consumers go through the referral process when choosing senior living communities (SB 439) and make elections nonpartisan in Fulton, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Cobb, and Clayton counties beginning in 2028. We speak to DeKalb County District Attorney Sherry Boston and Catie Ramp, the President and CEO of the Georgia Senior Living Association.

Plus, we hear from Peabody and Emmy Award-winning director, writer, and producer  Rita Coburn and Dr. Karida Brown, an American sociologist, author, professor, and public intellectual who serves as professor of Sociology at Emory. They discuss the new PBS documentary, "W.E.B. Du Bois: Rebel With A Cause."  The two-hour film, slated to air on WABE TV on May 28th at 9 pm, chronicles Du Bois' life of nearly 100 years from 1868 -1963.
