Description

Ambassador Andrew Young is one of Atlanta’s favorite adopted sons and he’s turning 90 years old. In this special edition of the Politically Georgia from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Greg Bluestein shares the AJC’s exclusive interview with the former mayor, Congressman, UN ambassador and civil rights icon. Greg is joined by AJC race and culture reporter Ernie Suggs, who is also the author of a new book “The Many Lives of Andrew Young.”
In this conversation, Suggs and Young discuss his legacy, what Atlanta means to him and the rest of the world, why he came to the city and how the civil rights movement has evolved.
