Our End of the Year letter shared to our supporters, donors, and community members recapping 2024 and outlining TIRRC’s vision for the future.

We know that by coming together as a community to discuss the issues facing our families and develop strategies for winning campaigns, we build critical power for our movement and lay the foundation for transformative change in Tennessee.

Whether we are Black or white, Latino or Asian, Native or newcomer, we all want our families to have the freedom to drink clean water, breathe safe air, and live in healthy communities.

Last night, the power of our movement was on full display as over 500 Tennesseans marched to the Capitol to stand against anti-immigrant attacks coming from the Tennessee General Assembly. 

On Tuesday, we stepped into our power, we claimed our space, and made our voices heard.

As I reflect on Black History Month, I’m struck by the resiliency and growing power of Black communities across the country.
