Today’s guest is Tami Sawyer,
an educator, advocate, organizer, leader, listener, and elected
official who currently serves as a county commissioner. Her passion
is people: ensuring they’re represented, heard, valued, and
included. In each of her roles, she’s built coalitions across
communities to challenge systems, propose solutions, and strengthen
the bonds between neighbors. In 2017, Tami founded #takeemdown901,
the movement that removed Confederate statues in Memphis, TN. This
and other justice work has won her many awards, as well as national
exposure on major news outlets.
