Amid ongoing nationwide efforts to put restrictions on teaching specific segments of American history, the National Center for Civil and Human Rights has launched a free learning portal to expand access. It aids teachers and parents in bringing a complete history about civil and human rights to students. Nicole Moore, who serves as the director of education for the National Center for Civil and Human Rights, talks more about the portal that offers ready-to-go lesson plans, worksheets and other interactive tools. She also explains how the lessons are taught to help students connect with their history. 

Plus, the Atlanta E-bike Rebate Program launched in 2024 with the goal of eliminating financial barriers to e-bike ownership, reducing transportation costs, and promoting a shift from car-dependent travel. The program was funded by a $1 million investment from the Atlanta City Council and administered by the Atlanta Regional Commission in partnership with Propel ATL.  Bennett Foster, the managing director of mobility at the Atlanta Regional Commission, and LaMiiko Moore, a recipient of the e-bike rebate, talk with Rose about a new report that details specifics about the E-bike Rebate Program—such as who received the citywide rebate, and how the rebate was used.
