Opinion: The expiration of ACA tax credits will leave disadvantaged communities behind
For too long, systemic barriers have made it harder for disadvantaged communities to access quality health care. Unfortunately, the “Big Beautiful Bill” that was just passed will erase much of the progress we have made. The slashing cuts to Medicaid and the impractical barriers added to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) Marketplace will disproportionately impact communities of color, not just across Georgia but across the United States.

Friday Night On The Square
By Jerry Curry, Staff Writer This past Friday, September 20th, the newly upgraded Salem Square was full of economic enhancements and socializing. Eric Bush, C.E.O. of the Washington County Chamber of Commerce, did a wonderful job organizing the event. With all side streets blocked off and most mercantile shops open, hundreds of people filled the square like an invasionary force. In front of the brick-and-mortar stores there were rows of tents with different venues set up on the street.
The American South’s Fight for Multiracial Democracy
The fight for democracy and inclusion has been a defining feature of America’s history. For some, this brings to mind the Founding Fathers, who signed a declaration that all people are created equal. But these men were not the architects of this nation. That achievement belongs to the people who have fought to hold America to the self-evident truth of equality, dedicating their lives to making multiracial democracy a reality.

PEP 789 – Preventing task-cancellation bugs by limiting yield in async generators | peps.python.org
No-yield example In this example, we see multiple rounds of the stack merging as we unwind from sys.prevent_yields, through the user-defined ContextManager, back to the original Frame. For brevity, the reason for preventing yields is not shown; it is part of the “1 enter” state. With no yield we don’t raise any errors, and because the number of enters and exits balance the frame returns as usual with no further tracking.

Elucidating the clandestine behavior of enantiomeric DHPs in calcium channels
One only need examine the recent history of the pharmaceutical industry to see the difficulties that can arise with enantiomeric molecules. For instance, thalidomide, originally marketed as a sedative, exhibits such a phenomenon, with S-thalidomide causing severe birth defects as opposed to the desired sedative effect of R-thalidomide. Due to these problematic issues, investigations into antithetical effects in enantiomers remains extremely relevant in contemporary pharmacology research.
Our Time is Now
Memphis and Atlanta will always have a psychic connection due to the history and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Before the motel, the shooting, the riots and the mourning, there was the Memphis sanitation workers’ strike. In April 1968, Dr. King pivoted his work on the Poor People’s Campaign to travel from Atlanta to Memphis, Tennessee and help energize the strikers — his last cause for economic justice.

Pamputtae brings dancehall to Toronto Pride — despite the anti-LGBTQ backlash | CBC News Original
Performing at Toronto's Pride festivities this weekend was never in question for Jamaican musician Pamputtae. "Honestly, it was never a difficult decision, because I'm an entertainer and don't limit my music. I sing for everyone. God loves everyone and doesn't pick and choose," said the dancehall and reggae artist (real name Eveana Henry), one of the headliners at the 2023 Pride festival. The decision, however, didn't sit well with parts of her community back home.

Equity is on the Ballot - The Atlanta Voice
Democracy is at risk if Black men don’t vote in Georgia With the November elections right around the corner, this is our moment as Black men to realize a values revolution in Georgia for our communities. In 2020, the state of Georgia proved a pivotal swing state in terms of national politics. All eyes were on us and in that moment—most Georgia voters decided that we deserved better. People voted their heart, conscious, and values.

Guy Scantlebury Hypnotherapy
Guy helped me resolve some unwanted feelings over unwanted thoughts and conflicts that I had, which I felt that hadn't been dealt with properly either at the time or in my mind. Guy was able to help me process the issue and let the matter go, by being able to process it myself, as well as diving deeper in to other memories tied up with them. We also were able to discuss and go through some thought process chains and how I could see a differing perspective of a situation.
VOICES: Moving from Inspiration to Execution
Pictured: Nathaniel Smith Standing with elected officials to realize an equitable Atlanta In a forum held by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the candidates for Atlanta mayor in attendance all answered that it was time for a new “Atlanta Way” – decentralizing power from primarily serving the civic and corporate elites toward centering prosperity within the community through more equitable initiatives like prioritizing local employment when large companies move to the city.

Smith: Voting rights in Georgia needs everyone's support
(Photo: Courtesy of Partnership for Southern Equity) All that stands between the free, fair and equitable elections that made the 2020 election cycle possible and a regression to Jim Crow-era voter suppression is the Georgia Senate. On March 1, HB531 passed the Georgia House along party lines – a bill that would restrict absentee voting and reduce access to early voting locations – reducing the equities that generations fought to obtain.
History Is Present in the Voting Booth: The Making of a Values Revolution

We are our history.” —James Baldwin My finger hovered over the screen as I stood in a voting booth at State Farm Arena—home of the Atlanta Hawks basketball team and Georgia’s largest polling precinct. I had stepped into the booth with my mask on and mind made up to exert my hard-earned right to vote and support my candidates, but I pondered my decision.

Leaving Guatemala
The van carried me away on the first leg of what would be a multi-stage journey from rural Guatemala to southern Utah. I gazed forlornly out the window as we wove through pine forest and out of the valley. A group of Peace Corps volunteers watch the sunrise from the summit of the volcano Acatenango.

Atlanta must lead the way in advancing racial equity
A scene from the Atlanta protests following the death of George Floyd Photograph by Jonathan Walker Ahmaud Arbery. Breonna Taylor. George Floyd. These three names set our hearts, region, and country ablaze this week. People—rightfully fed up, angry, and frustrated with another unjust murder by the hands (knees) of the police—took their voices to the streets to advocate for reform. Some protests turned violent. People got hurt. Police overreacted. Property was damaged.
Leaving Guatemala

Still, I pulled myself out of bed and prepared for work like the start of any other week. As I dressed, I dreaded packing all my clothes.
Leaving Guatemala
This is the first installment in a four-part series Before I received the email from the Global Director of Peace Corps, it had been an average Sunday evening in Guatemala. Settled in after the usual dinner of black beans and a couple of fried eggs, I managed to ignore the subject of the conversation I had hours earlier with the three other volunteers living in the same rural town as I — the coronavirus, and our likelihood of being evacuated.

Opinion: Power rate hike would hurt low-income folks
There are many inequities that separate Georgians, including access to quality education, thriving-wage employment and health care. But there is one inequity most people don’t pay attention to: energy costs. How our energy is produced and where that energy comes from significantly impacts our household economic stability and the overall quality of our air, water and other natural resources that affect our health and well-being.

Equity, Health, Resilience, and Jobs: Lessons from the Just Growth Circle
Consider this familiar pattern, easily recognizable in cities around the United States today: A group of well-meaning urban planners, city leaders, conservationists, and businesses restore an urban watershed with parks, trails, and greenspace. Water quality improves; the potential for well-being, health, and climate resilience is widely celebrated. But, as the neighborhood improves, property values spike, and a wave of gentrification and displacement ensues.
A public health approach to preventing mass violence
The recent and tragic mass shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio, shatter our sense of safety and security and force us all to ask how long events like this will continue before we find a solution. We believe that solutions are possible and that a public health approach will make a significant contribution toward addressing our nation’s epidemic of mass violence.
It's time to fill the income gap
Whenever we see more cranes added to the city skyline, hear about another public works project that promises to alleviate traffic while creating more traffic in the meantime, or read about another company calling Atlanta home or leaving the city because of another questionable bill from the General Assembly, we always hear about how many jobs are coming (or leaving) the city. But how many of those jobs are going to people born, bred and raised in Atlanta?
