Who are The Memphis 7?
The Memphis 7 are are seven members of city council who believe that they know best for the city by taking away the right of the citizens to vote on the police residency referendum. By doing so- the blood of violent crime in this city is on THEIR hands. Here's the Memphis 7 crime report for one neighborhood around the University of Memphis

Do you know who YOUR city council member is? Do you know their email address? Do you know when they meet and what the agenda is?
Now more than EVER- you must know this information and act on it! Memphis had one of the most violent summers in many, many years. Are you ok with your council member taking away YOUR right to vote on this referendum? DO SOMETHING
