This spring, we were joined by Charlotte Norsworthy Varnum, Executive Director of The Red & Black and program coordinator for the Certificate of News Literacy at UGA, to discuss the news, media consumption, and how to find important information amid all the noise.

In October of 2023, we joined the Athens community to discuss faith and politics in a Normal Talk featuring attorney and political strategist Justin Giboney, who is also well known as the co-founder of the AND Campaign.
