We stood with our Knoxville neighbors this week as questions mount over the Knox County Sheriff’s Office’s use of Flock surveillance cameras.

What’s come to light matters: a contract for camera access reportedly built through purchases kept just under the dollar threshold that would’ve triggered public oversight, meaning years of surveillance expansion happened without the transparency our community deserves. A letter from the Mayor’s office has now called into question whether that agreement is even valid. All of this while the department has seen significant recent departures, including senior counsel.

We believe accountability and transparency in how our government watches its own citizens isn’t a partisan issue. It’s a moral one. Every community has the right to know how it’s being surveilled, who approved it, and whether proper process was followed.

We’ll keep showing up, asking questions, and standing for a government that’s honest with the people it serves.

ART has a way to reach people in ways that policy often can’t.
And because of that, Sarah Baer invited us to the second year of pARTisan, at the David Lusk Gallery in Nashville.
The exhibit ran from 8/18-8/23.
the art was available to purchase on the pARTisan auction link-
All proceeds from art sales will be split between the Artist and Tennessee Rise, a coalition of local leaders dedicated to electing strong, progressive candidates up and down the ballot across Tennessee.

Monday, members from West Tennessee For the People, MICAH, Indivisible Memphis, SOCM, retired judges, faith leaders/ Southern Christian Coalition, and local residents all across West Tennessee came together to call on Mason Alderman to hold a public hearing on the contract with ICE and CoreCivic.

The argument was simple - this facility is immoral, inhumane and it's harming our neighbors. The Mason Alderman agreed to a public hearing. People power works.
