Macon and Bibb County—as we know them—will cease to exist at the stroke of midnight January 1, 2014.

The consolidated government will take control, with newly-elected leaders and—many hope—a new identity and a fresh outlook. It may be good time for those of us who live here to have a conversation about who we are as a community.

GPB Macon and our partners at The Telegraph and the Center for Collaborative Journalism at Mercer University are embarking on a new project we call "Macon in the Mirror," and if you live in Macon-Bibb we're going to want to talk to you.

Tim Regan-Porter, director of the Center for Collaborative Journalism, stopped by to explain.
