President Joe Biden's visit to Atlanta was supposed to be a victory lap. He and Vice President Kamala Harris would tout the $1.9 trillion stimulus package -- and all the local sweeteners inside -- in the state responsible for flipping the Senate majority to the Democrats, which helped make the whole thing possible.
But instead, a gunman's senseless acts of violence at spas near Atlanta wrenched the spotlight back to a seething issue in America: racism and its dangerous and deadly impacts. Now Biden will meet with members of the Asian American community in Georgia as he and others decry the violence and discrimination the community has faced since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic.More Related News
