Voting rights advocates are urging Black Georgians to take appropriate steps this year to ensure they’re not impacted by mass voter registration cancellations and voter eligibility challenges.

The Pryor St. tent city was home to as many as 80 unhoused people living in about 100 tents. The site’s scheduled clearing comes amid efforts to combat a gentrification-fueled rise in homelessness causing primarily Black tenants to end up on the streets. https://t.co/OSzt5uFQLx
