About this listen

 A historic land deal has halted a controversial mining proposal next to the Okefenokee Swamp, ending a six-year fight and delivering a major win for conservationists. On Thursday’s episode of the Politically Georgia podcast, hosts Greg Bluestein speaks with AJC environment reporter Drew Kann about what the agreement means for the swamp’s future. Then, co-host Tia Mitchell talks with Skyler Akins of the Log Cabin Republicans about the group’s dispute with Smyrna Pride—and what led to their last-minute inclusion in the weekend’s celebration.
