WATCH: “Transgender people are people, Representative.”

Rep. @Justinjpearson gives Rep. Gino Bulso (R-Brentwood) a lesson on the constitution as he rips his latest anti-trans youth bill — again focusing on athletes, which has not been an issue in Tennessee.

[Justin J. Pearson @Justinjpearson]

The fight for environmental justice rooted in Boxtown, Westwood, Memphis, & Shelby County centered the voices of our predominantly Black community who was called the “path of least resistance” by Plains and Valero. Broken Ground tells of our resilience! https://t.co/2ZfucL0D7n

@xandraellin Happy for you, but the @onthemedia newsletter is the only one I get that I don't automatically shunt to my "later please" folder. I'm genuinely going to miss your writing. Also, I'm pretty sure your bizarro links are responsible for, like, 50% of my pop culture knowledge. 🙃💔

Memphis may have the sweetest water in the world, but toxic waste could ruin it all – a comic https://t.co/fQPFgTG1hz

[Justin J. Pearson @Justinjpearson]

We cannot afford to be silent local power to regulate pipelines and toxic storage tanks could be stripped away by the TN general assembly. All 95 counties in TN deserve the right to say that a pipeline company can not build next to a school or church or drinking water source.
