Bond, Kelsea Bond

In this episode of Clover Club, Erika chats with Kelsea Bond—union member, community organizer, and candidate for Atlanta City Council. Raised in Metro Atlanta, Kelsea brings a deep understanding of the city’s needs and a bold vision for a more equitable, sustainable future. From affordable housing to public transit to a local Green New Deal, Kelsea breaks down what it means to fight for a city that serves everyone, not just the wealthy few. The conversation also dives into how grassroots organizing, public policy, and good old-fashioned community care can transform a city from the ground up. If you care about the future of Atlanta—or just love hearing from passionate people doing real work—you’ll want to hear this one.
