    Georgia's Anti-Critical Race Theory Bills w/ Sylvia Johnson - Season 4: Episode 2

    This episode is a joint episode of The Neighborhood Watch Podcast and The King Williams Podcast. In this interview, I talk to Atlanta data-journalist Sylvia Johnson on Georgia's recent anti-CRT bills.

    Season 4: Episode 1 - Mariah Parker

    In this episode of The Neighborhood Watch Podcast, host King Williams talks with Athens, Georgia City Councilmember Mariah Parker. Parker gained virality in June of 2018 after winning a special election, by holding up a fist and swearing on The Autobiography of Malcolm X. Since then Parker has won re-election, in addition to becoming a more well-known politician outside of the borders. Instead of focusing on that viral moment, the interview is comprised of questions on being a non-traditional candidate, prison abolition, calls to ban educational materials, and a framework for reparations for Linnetown, a small Black section of Athens that was destroyed to expand the campus of the University of Georgia. She is also a battle rapper and we talk about that in the interview as well. She also has released a new single under her rap moniker, Linqua Franqa.  Her first video, 'Wurk' has just been released, which will accompany her latest album Bellringer on April 22nd. The interview starts at 1:05 after housekeeping! Once again this episode is brought to you by LoCo+ the home of The King Williams Show, an explainer series on Atlanta.
