During his annual State of the City address earlier this year, Mayor Andre Dickens was boastful about Atlanta's being a place where Black residents can thrive. Citing credited (and uncredited) data points, Hizzoner reeled off a list of superlatives. It's true that Atlanta and the metro area ranks high for Black-owned business, homeownership and in-migration. Of course, like any major city with large Black populations, there are challenges.

My own search for a therapist led me to the latest story in the Black mecca series. Thankful that Atlanta natives Savannah Elahee and Archie Clay III were willing to share their stories with me. #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth https://t.co/84jXL4vTDA
Wishing a happy, well-deserved retirement to my guy, @RamCNN. A legend in the newsroom and on the rec league football pitch. One of one.
