Pray for ATL

If you're in Atlanta, you've seen it. It's been on underpasses, your neighbor's car bumper - it's even tattooed on the skin of some proud locals. The simple image of praying hands became the unofficial seal of our city well over two decades ago. But, before it was a sticker, it was a call to activism when artist R. Land feared Atlanta might be losing its soul.

Today, we talk about the origin, impact, and evolution of one Land's most well-known pieces, "Pray for ATL."

Special thanks to DJ, composer, and producer Chris Devoe for providing the theme music for this podcast.
