- From Savannah's riverfront to the Appalachian Trail, Emmy Award-winning TV personality Leroy Powell tours the state in Georgia On My Mind, a picturesque documentary of the Peach State. Focusing on Georgia's beauty and history, Georgia On My Mind talks with Georgia natives, including former President Jimmy Carter, Monticello's Trisha Yearwood and Augusta's Larry Mize about their impressions and memories of the Empire State of the South.
From the city of fountains to the city of seven hills, from mysterious swampland to antebellum plantation splendor, from colleges to cattle, from poets and statesmen to gardens and waterfalls, Georgia On My Mind provides an overview of the historic landmarks and natural attractions that appeal to Georgia natives, long-time residents and newcomers, and brings millions of tourists each year.
Through the use of historic photographs, vintage film footage and spectacular video shot especially for the film, the documentary captures the beauty and magic of Georgia. Georgia On My Mind is divided into three sections: North, including Amicalola Falls, New Echota and Ellijay; Atlanta, including the King Center, Georgia Tech and Stone Mountain; and South, including Andersonville, Vidalia, and the Okefenokee Swamp.
Original air date: 1995. For more information, check out our website at www.gpb.org

I have a long heritage with GA, I am 72 now and still have lots of fond memories growing up and living here. I have lived in a few other states, and drove an 18 wheeler across the Nation. Always came home to GA. I will die here like most of my relatives. Loved the trip. Peace
Amen to that! I’ve been to lots of states in America and all over the world. But there’s only one place I’ll call home and that in Georgia. Georgia is always on my mind.. Like I said I’ve been to a lot of places but nowhere Compares to Georgia my home!! 💯
GO DAWGS!!Proud to be a Georgia Boy!!!#Brunswick,Ga!!!
Amen to that brother!! 💯
Waycross here, buddy! I've worked in 6 different counties surrounding the area as a firefighter/ems. I've also hunted these counties and will never leave from the area.
visited New York - nothing, visited Atlanta - and can’t forget. It’s special.
Hell Yeah 💯
One of the best documentaries I have ever seen. Makes me proud to be a Georgian.
Georgia is the best state. It has mountains, beaches, you name it!
I always loved it but now it's the home of voter fraud
Hell Yeah it is! There’s not many places that is like Georgia. I’ve been to lots of places but nowhere compares to my home Georgia.. The 🍑 State! We have mountains,beaches,Marsh, And plenty of history and historic cities!! God bless Georgia.. 💯 ❤️ I am from West Georgia. On the Georgia/Alabama state line and that will always be my home town. But I live outside of Savannah. Savannah is one of the most beautiful Cities in the United States!!
When I was a kid This was one of my favorite shows on PBS or GPS. (Georgia on my mind). I used to love to see all the beautiful city’s and learn all the history of all the beautiful cities.. 💯
Leroy Powell was an Atlanta TV legend. His segments on WAGA-TV news could make you laugh, wonder, or even shed a tear
My mother in law came from Whadley Georgia. Now I know why she not only had a huge heart for others, but wanted to move back home from New England. She taught me to cook those wonderful dishes and loved me like her own. Thank you Miss Morine 💞
Amen to that. People in the South are just more friendly and Very talkative and love to make people feel comfortable. Speaking as a Georgian. We want people to feel comfortable and part of the group. That’s why we’re so friendly and we like to talk and yes down in the South we take things a little slower than up north. But most true southerners have a big heart and will do anything to help you.. 💯 ❤️ 🍑 We will open our home up and invite you to have some sweet tea and talk with us..
Reminds me of the Georgia I grew up in before everyone moved in. I really enjoyed this a lot.
Amen to that! 💯 🍑
3:27 Please, for everyone who every said Atlanta doesn't have a Southern accent, James Dickey is a classic example of the Atlanta accent of the older generation...Jessica Tandy actually did it quite well in Driving Miss Daisy
Amen to that.. 💯 People from Georgia have one of the most beautiful southern accents..
I'm not from Georgia but I enjoyed this documentary immensely; well done all.
Hey what about Ty Cobb?
LaFayette, Georgia here, love my state
Hell Yeah ❤️
I’ve lived in Monticello my whole life!
Georgia is a beautiful place. I was born and raised here. Not only does it have a ton of natural beauty, it also has a lot of beauty in places like Savannah or Augusta. My favorite part of the nature here are the pine trees and the lakes as well as the Golden Isles on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, while my least favorite part of the place are the cudzu vines. They're strangling our region's natural resources.
So this is where the Great GPTV Georgia On My Mind Sign off came from?
I can assure you there were never "successful negotiations" with the native Americans. The negotiations were done at gunpoint.
Very cool.
Does GPB not have the rights to use "Georgia on my Mind?" There is silence during the intro and outro of this show.
Great Question! While we do have rights to use the song on television and our website, we do not have streaming rights to it so we mute it for the TH-cam version. To view the unmuted version, check out our website at gpb.org. Thank you!
Some of the areas in georgia look like sasquatch territory for sure.

We used to be call the peanut state.

Byron Herbert Reece is just one of my hometown’s local legends. He and his family lived in the Choestoe Valley at the foothills of Blood Mountain. His actual homestead was covered in the 1930s by Lake Trahlyta in Vogel State Park.
Gold was originally discovered in Blairsville in 1832. The result of this is devastating because it was deemed necessary by the village forefathers to make the Cherokee leave their homes by force and go west. Then huge plots of land were given to the white man…. The history is long and can be read in the Old Courthouse on the square. It’s not pretty. But it’s history and shouldn’t be forgotten.
I was raised surrounded by Blue Rock mountain, Buzzard Roost and Blood Mountain . I love my home. And will leave this earth buried in our family cemetery with my brother, parents and grandparents.
Today, it’s a city and I’m not fond of the crowds of tourists. I get that it’s necessary to a point but I miss the quiet days when this small town wasn’t even on the map. My heart and soul are forever lost in these mountains. ❤️
Wow, Good ole Racist Georgia. They forgot to tell about all the racism in Georgia past and present but no one wants to talk about that Georgia history.
Racist is in every state we Georgia love our state relaxing Best soul Food,Good laughter and Fun activities Good, Friends Georgia, Georgia my home sweet 🏡 Home
@@cassandradennard6323 i really hope you're not a Black person sonding thos ignorant...if you're Caucasian carry on, I expect it.
There is racism everywhere. Saying this as a Black woman from Georgia. Yes, GA has a painful history but so do other states and countries.
