I firmly believe this was an illegal redistricting effort that was harmful to Memphis and the Black community by diluting their political representation. It is my hope that they will prevail and that the previous district maps will be restored.” # # # | 1 | 2026-06-19T06:50:32Z | 2026-06-19T06:53:40Z |
