Friday on Political Rewind: The three men found guilty of murdering Ahmaud Arbery were set to be sentenced today in a Brunswick courtroom. All three face a mandatory 30 years in prison, but we asked: will any of them be given a chance of parole? The tragic deaths last year of Arbery, Rayshard Brooks, George Floyd, and other African Americans accelerated demands for racial and social justice … and gave new legitimacy to the Black Lives Matter movement. In Glynn County, a new organization came to life to push for change in a county long seen as hostile to its Black residents. But how much progress has been made in achieving these goals? We asked our panel.

The Panel:

Elijah Bobby Henderson — Co-founder, A Better Glynn

Margaret Coker — Editor-in-Chief, The Current

Patricia Murphy — Columnist, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Tiffany Williams Roberts — Public Policy Director, Southern Center for Human Rights
