Blue Oval Good Neighbor

Blue Oval Good Neighbor Our ultimate goal is to reach a Community Benefits Agreement with Ford so that the impending economic boom benefits the people not just big corporations.

West Tennessee for the People seeks to unify, educate, organize, and mobilize our communities to transform our economic, political, and environmental conditions for equity and justice for all while preserving our rich cultures, histories, and legacies. Blue Oval Good Neighbor is a committed group of community members in West Tennessee that want to have a voice and power in the development of Ford'

s Blue Oval City Project. We want to ensure that Ford is a good neighbor to all of us in West Tennessee, therefore, we are holding community meetings to understand the impact of the development on everyday people and informing folks of how they can have a meaningful seat at the table.
