We are grounded in the legacy of Freedom fighters who fought for the right for Black people to live free and whole lives, this iteration of the Black Nashville.
The Black Nashville Assembly is the space for you! WE believe that WE will win, WE are relentless, WE are consistent, and above all WE LOVE OUR PEOPLE!!! If this is how you feel come to our assembly this Saturday and build with us. Nov 4 rsvp at https://t.co/5QRZGD61xb
The common love for empowering our Nashville community brought together Erica Perry, @nashvillered and @MIKEFLOSSMUSIC Now, they are the leaders of the SMC (@BlkNshAssembly), a movement organization driven to create racial and economic justice. https://t.co/s1kr7z5SaK
To reverse this tread it will take organization and political struggle. https://t.co/bK84dqS2Uh sign up to organize with us.
This is a local budgeting issue that occurs because of the lack of political will. But this type of conversation must happen offline. Join us!
Black Children Deserve Better
We are heartbroken, angry, and extremely sad about the shooting and death of 4 year old Taliyah, a Black girl from Nashville. On Tuesday evening Taliyah was shot in East Nashville and succumbed to gunshot wounds on Wednesday afternoon.
It is time for our city to invest in public safety that allows our children โ Black children like Taliyah, to grow up and live in safe and healthy communities.
We will continue to fight for the change we need with our people in mind.
Come out May 27th to our cookout for free food and develop action steps to build the democracy and political power our communities need.

Last Saturday's Assembly was fire! We had a mock vote and it's clear Black folks in Nashville want leadership that prioritizes Black and working-class communities.
