On this week's Political Breakfast, a long-anticipated appearance from Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens. 

   Dickens gives the latest on so-called 'Stop Cop City' ballot referendum efforts. 

  Dickens has seen the body camera footage of former Atlanta police officer Kiran Kimbrough trying to arrest Atlanta church deacon Johnny Hollman. 

  Hollman died after being tased during a traffic incident back in August. Why Dickens feels this case supports the reasoning for building a public safety training center. 

  Plus, Dickens responds to the violence in Israel and in the Gaza Strip, and talks about affordable housing initiatives here at home.
