Black Podcasting - ENCORE: The Atlanta Child Murders Pt 2

Wendy & Beth are taking a break this week, so please enjoy this episode from 2020, The Atlanta Child Murders Pt 2 (look for Pt 1 in your feed).

Today we are talking about the Atlanta Child Murders. Between 1979 and 1981, children and teenagers were disappearing off the streets of Atlanta, later turning up dead, terrifying the entire city. At least 28 people in the Atlanta area, most of them young black boys and teenagers, were kidnapped and murdered.

This case is complicated. So to do it justice, we felt we had to turn it into a two parter. We encourage you to check out our show notes for additional information about the case.

Thanks for listening! This is a weekly podcast and new episodes drop every Thursday, so until next time… look alive guys, it’s crazy out there!
