We can not accept Southwest Memphis being used as waterhole for corporate exploitation while we continue to suffocate from poisonous air that @xai contributes to with thier generators. Where is the care for our community?
Thank you @ashliblow & @MLK50Memphis
NEW ON MLK50: Even as xAI is on track to use enough energy to power a small city, MLGW representatives have said in city council and utility board meetings that its system has the capacity to take on the demand, safely and reliably. https://t.co/wrmetfW204
Tyre Nichols would’ve turned 32 today. A father, a son, a skateboarder — stolen from us by brutal police violence in Memphis. We honor his life today and send our love to his family. Happy heavenly birthday, Tyre. Your story still echoes in our hearts and minds.
People make excuses about how/why your life was taken from you and your family. But there are no humane, just excuses. No right reason. May your 32nd birthday remind us to continue the work and to light up the darkness. #BreonnaTaylor
Some of the best investigative news reporting is being done by @MorePerfectUS right now. Their YouTube channel puts every major news outlet in America to shame. https://t.co/TE00LdwU7a
Today, Breonna Taylor should be celebrating her 32nd birthday. She should be here — living, laughing, thriving. Instead, we remember her life and all the great things she wished to accomplish. We will NEVER forget her. Happy heavenly birthday, Bre!
It’s no coincidence this data center was built near a majority Black, working-class community.
Polluting poor neighborhoods is a feature of corporate greed—it’s not a glitch.
Environmental justice is a worker issue.
Everyone should watch this video to understand the human cost of Elon Musk and other corporations' AI expansion.
This isn't progress, this is an environmental crime scene that is poisoning people in Memphis so Musk can make more money to bribe our government's inaction.
Keep applying pressure Memphis
“The NAACP sent out a four page letter on Thursday, May 29, to the Memphis Light, Gas and Water (MLGW) Board of Commissioners, calling for a thorough review of the utility's role in supporting Musk's xAI initiative.”

NEW: Elon Musk’s massive xAI data center is poisoning Memphis.
It's burning enough gas to power a small city, with no permits and no pollution controls.
Residents tell us they can’t breathe and they’re getting sicker.
MEMPHIS VS. MUSK: “XAI & Elon Musk have never included the community in decisions… our elected officials haven’t been doing anything.”
@keshaunpearson talks to @AaronParnas about XAI “choking” Memphis — not enough attention is being paid to this.

Elon Musk’s xAI is joining a dozen other polluters who are destroying Memphis’ Air Quality. I spoke with Lawyer & Influencer @AaronParnas about how dangerous for a want to be tech-dictator to determine what kind of air we breathe.

Our most vulnerable Black families are suffering and being taken advantage of while City & County leaders who are appointed and elected sit back and applaud Elon Musk’s Poisoning of our air. It is PAST TIME to do what is right! Shut down the turbines, #StopxAI 🛑 #ProtectMemphis

The overwhelming majority of jobs at the two biggest companies in America pay less than $20/hr.
Meanwhile, the heads of those companies are some of the richest people on the planet.
See the problem?
MEMPHIS VS. MUSK: “They decided to hand over 522 acres in Memphis to Elon Musk for XAI with a year of free rent — and they haven’t even said what they’re going to do with it.”
