When I wanted to know a little bit more about the governor's race in Georgia,

I knew exactly who I wanted to talk to.

My friend, Kai Wright, he just got back from a trip down south this past weekend.

So I got him on the phone.

So you flew into Atlanta?

Yeah, it's a lot of driving.

The place he went is pretty rural, Clay County, population about 3,000.

It's the part of the state where Hurricane Michael just passed through.

I mean, there's still a lot of folks when I was there that didn't have power yet.

And so in the middle of all of this, the selection is unsolving.

We've got people lining up to get food because they don't have power and keep feeding their houses.

Wow.

Yeah, it's a pretty tough area.

It's a tough area.

Kai told me about this woman he met while he was down there.

Shirley Cody.

Shirley, the 74-year-old black woman, she grew up in Clay County,

but left and spent her career in Atlanta, as a nurse.

She moved back to Clay County to take care of her parents as they were getting old and passing.

And when she got back, she was like, what is this place?

I remember sister I had been in the community of black people.

She drove me around and she was like that plum.
