As rapper Andre 3000 from the Atlanta-based duo Outkast proclaimed to the world during the 1995 Source Awards: “The South got something to say!” For Season 2 of the BLK IRL Podcast, Anuli travels to Atlanta, GA to learn more about the local tensions between "Old Atlanta'' and "New Atlanta'' that began to take root in the 1990s as the city prepared its bid to host the 1996 Olympic Games and how Atlanta has since evolved to become one of America’s cultural capitals.
In this episode, Anuli talks to Kristian Weatherspoon, the Vice President of Digital Storytelling at Atlanta History Center, about the role cultural institutions like Atlanta History Center play in interpreting history, the lasting impact of the 1996 Summer Olympic Games on the city of Atlanta, and Atlanta’s influence in the Southern U.S. as a region and America as a whole.
