This is such an inappropriate and gross thing to say & has detrimental ripple effects on a city that is constantly fighting against perception.
Memphis is a beautiful place. Like many cities it has crime - but it should not be defined by that. I’ll never stop fighting for it.
Starting a running list of all the things that make Memphis one of the coolest cities in the country despite everyone continuing to try to pretend it’s the worst:
-Memphis Grizzlies (duh)
-National Civil Rights Museum
-Stax
-Sun Studios
-bbq nachos
-honey gold wings
#OTD we celebrate #Juneteenth. From the day emancipation was declared, newly freed Black communities built a legacy of empowerment through education, culture, & mutual support. We honor this day by reflecting on our past & recommitting to progress.
Memphis Police Association have filed a counterclaim against the city in the fight over the second lieutenant promotional rank.
