The Annie E. Casey Foundation recently released its 2024 report, “Changing the Odds: Comprehensive Solutions for Atlanta’s Future.” The report tracks community, education, and economic data by race. This year’s report explores how the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020 racial unrest revealed racial disparities in Atlanta. Kweku Forstall, the director of the Annie E. Casey Foundation’s Atlanta Civic Site, discusses key takeaways from the report.

Plus, for our graduation series, we hear from Marwah Ismail. She’s a first-generation Somali-American and an Emory University student graduating with honors in religion and Italian studies on a pre-law track. Ismail talks with Rose about being diagnosed with a rare and malignant eye cancer while earning her undergraduate degree.
