Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! We continue our candidate profile series with Atlanta City Councilmember Michael Julian Bond, who is seeking re-election to his Post 1 At-Large seat.
Bond, a veteran public servant with deep roots in Atlanta politics, joins the show to reflect on his decades of service and the lessons he's learned through years of navigating city government.
In this conversation, Bond discusses the major issues shaping Atlanta's future — from public safety, infrastructure, and transparency in government. He shares his perspective on how to balance growth with equity, what it takes to keep Atlanta's neighborhoods connected and safe, and why experience matters in local leadership.
Listeners will gain insight into Bond's approach to collaboration, his views on accountability, and his hopes for the city he's spent a lifetime serving.
