We hear from Raelynn Butler, the secretary for culture and Humanities for the Muscogee Nation, and attorney Mary Kathryn Nagle regarding a lawsuit against the Poarch Band of Creek Indians over their handling of sacred land dating back to 2012. Plus, a shelter-in-place advisory is now in place for more than 90,000 people in Rockdale County following a chemical fire at the BioLab plant in Conyers, Georgia.
