Julie Walker, who serves as the vice chancellor for Libraries & Archive and the state librarian for Georgia Public Library Service, discusses a new partnership that aims to provide a new way for Georgians to renew, change, or review their benefits for state government assistance programs such as Medicaid, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and Women, Infants, & Children (WIC). The partnership between the Georgia Department of Human Services and the Georgia Public Library Service will install more than 400 self-service kiosks at libraries across Georgia. The kiosks will allow Georgians to access Georgia Gateway, the state government’s integrated web portal for assistance programs.
Plus, we revisit Rose’s conversation with Resita Cox. The Emmy Award-winning film producer and director discusses her latest documentary, “Freedom Hill.” The documentary explores how climate change and environmental racism are affecting the first town in the U.S. that was chartered by formerly enslaved people.
Lastly, for our graduation series, we hear from Air Force Reservist Rabiah Hubert. The psychology major is one of Spelman's Class of 2024 Top Ten Scholars and Majors. She talks with Rose about her academic journey as a non-traditional transfer student and how she balanced her undergraduate schoolwork while currently serving in the U.S. military.
