Black communities protest and push and yearn to overcome adversity and gain a sense of control over their lives for a chance at peace and security. But, who should decide what’s best for a Black community? bit.ly/46pT8Bg
We ended the week at City Hall for Day on the Hill. We are grateful for the @MEM_Council taking the time to listen to the community & our concerns. The turnout was great, & we are excited to see your continued advocacy in making our city and county a great place for us all.
We joined forces with @MemphisForAll on Thursday to host a civic workshop. We appreciate everyone who came out to learn more about how our local government works and the roles we play in it. We can't wait to bring you the next one.
TVA’s reckless and costly gas buildout will pollute communities, raise energy prices, and fuel the #ClimateEmergency. That needs to change NOW. Join us May 8 in Nashville to demand @TVAnews lead the way to a fossil FREE future! bit.ly/rallyforvalley
It's not too late to join us at City Hall from 10 AM to 3 PM. See you there!

The bill to arm teachers has been placed on the calendar for tomorrow at 1pm. This is dangerous and terrifying. Our schools are going to have more instances of gun violence due to this bad bill. Arming teachers isn’t the answer to legislator’s cowardice! #ProtectKidsNotGuns
