BRACK: Rural broadband shows another way that there are two Georgias

BRACK: Rural broadband shows another way that there are two Georgias

By Elliott Brack  | Back in the 70s, Gov. Joe Frank Harris’ claiming that there were “two Georgias” astounded some for a while. Then people began realizing that indeed, Atlanta was different, and had far more opportunities, than communities in other parts of the state. Joe Frank’s idea was basically an economic one. Yet today we have a far greater problem for the rural areas of Georgia: broadband access.
