TN is currently in a special session to strip away the voting representation of Memphis, the state’s only majority Black district. The newly proposed white supremacy maps would divide our current 9th Congressional district across THREE districts. Based on these maps, we would be shuffled into the 5th district (that would stretch three hours across the state into Williamson County, outside Nashville), spanning a region with VASTLY different priorities and needs than those of our city. We’ve always joked that we live in MEMPHIS, not Tennessee — because TN never seems to represent us, our values or those of our city. That’s never been more apparent than this week. Their racism is on full display.

Experienced our first (and definitely not last) pottery class at tonight! We learned to throw a mug on the wheel and make/attach a handle. It was hard, hilarious and relaxing all at the same time. Will absolutely 100% return for another class 🥰.
