Today is National HIV Testing Day. Rev. Dr. Monte Norwood, the senior pastor for Bible Way Ministries International, talks about the importance of getting tested and how the faith community is helping to destigmatize the virus and elevate awareness and support.

Plus, ATLDOT Commissioner Solomon Caviness discusses several topics, including his new role as Atlanta’s top transportation expert, the progress of a long-awaited resurfacing of DeKalb Ave., and how the city plans to use voter-approved infrastructure funding.

Lastly, David Rubenstein, the co-founder and co-chairman of The Carlyle Group and the host of the new PBS series, “Iconic America,” talks with Rose about the new eight-episode documentary series that explores the dynamic and diverse stories of historic sites across the country, including Stone Mountain.
