Her race is back on. Deborah Gonzalez, a former state representative for Georgia House District 117, took on the Governor- and won. This is the story of how she got back on the ballot, her platform, and the seat she is seeking. The ACLU calls the district attorney the most powerful elected official you've never heard of. On this fifth installment of our Heritage series, Alex and Will talk with Deborah, a Democratic candidate for DA in Athens and Oconee, about ending mass incarceration, increasing transparency, and addressing the systemic racial injustice embedded within our courts.
