Good Morning Everyone!

I hope you’re all having a beautiful and blessed start to your day — first and foremost.

So… I opened up my phone this morning, and the very first article I saw stopped me in my tracks.

It sparked some deep reflection, which led to my thought — and message — for today…PLEASE READ AND GOVE YOUR THOUGHTS

The recent situation with Memphis-Shelby County Schools is unfortunate, but it highlights a much larger issue — and it’s not limited to MSCS.

There are other agencies and departments across Shelby County where similar patterns are playing out. New leadership comes in, and employees with years of knowledge and expertise — the ones who understand the processes and have kept things running — are either terminated, silenced, or treated unfairly. Those who remain are often afraid to speak up due to fear of retaliation or being targeted simply for doing what’s right.

As a result, morale has plummeted in many of these organizations. The very people responsible for serving the public are left to operate in environments filled with fear, uncertainty, and inconsistent leadership — all while certain individuals in leadership positions abuse their authority without being held accountable.

This is exactly why our upcoming elections matter. We need to elect leaders who are committed to transparency, fair and consistent enforcement of policies, and ensuring that no one is above the rules — regardless of their position or connections.

Ultimately, the taxpayers of Shelby County fund these salaries. We deserve to be treated with respect, fairness, and professionalism — not dismissed, retaliated against, or ignored.

It’s time to demand real accountability, transparency, and ethical leadership across all levels of Shelby County government — not just within MSCS.

Dr. Marie Feagins entered the district with an energy and decisiveness that many initially admired. Change was needed, but she overcorrected.

**📢 A Message from Memphis Mic: Building a Safer, Stronger Memphis Together**

https://share.newsbreak.com/anz4f2ok

In light of recent developments, including the Department of Justice's investigation into the Memphis Police Department, it’s clear that we need to focus on sustainable solutions to improve public safety and restore trust in our community. At Memphis Mic, we are committed to advocating for meaningful changes that address crime and improve transparency, accountability, and performance across all city departments, especially within our law enforcement agencies.

**Why Performance and Quality Improvement (PQI) is Essential:**
A dedicated Performance and Quality Improvement (PQI) department is not just a good idea—it’s a necessity for Memphis and Shelby County. Here’s how it can help transform our city:

1️⃣ **Oversight and Accountability**
- A PQI department provides consistent oversight of departmental operations, ensuring policies are followed and goals are met.
- It ensures leadership within all city departments, including the police force, is held accountable through clear benchmarks and measurable outcomes.

2️⃣ **Accurate Data Reporting**
- Proper data reporting within direct reports is critical to understanding the current landscape of issues and crime.
- By ensuring data is accurate and free of manipulation, we can create an honest picture of what’s happening in our community.

3️⃣ **Statistical Data for Improvement**
- A PQI department develops statistical data that is trackable and measurable. This data highlights areas where improvements are needed and identifies what’s working well.
- This empowers the Memphis Police Department and other city agencies to adopt strategies that are **proactive rather than reactive**, preventing issues before they arise rather than simply responding to them.

4️⃣ **Proactive Policing Strategies**
- A focus on quality and performance improvement ensures that the police force has the tools, training, and insight to address crime trends before they escalate.
- Proactive policing fosters community trust and enhances public safety by addressing root causes rather than just symptoms.

5️⃣ **Ensuring Data Integrity**
- The integrity of the statistics being reported is crucial for decision-making. A PQI department ensures all data is accurate, reliable, and transparent, creating a foundation for trust and evidence-based policies.

**Our Call to Action:**
To achieve these goals, Memphis Mic proposes the establishment of a centralized PQI department that works across all city functions. This department would collaborate with law enforcement, community leaders, and citizens to ensure continuous improvement and accountability.

This isn’t just about policing—it’s about creating a Memphis where every department, every initiative, and every leader is focused on **delivering quality services to its citizens.**

Together, we can rebuild trust, reduce crime, and create a stronger, more unified Memphis. We invite you to join the conversation and advocate for a better future. Let’s demand accountability, transparency, and results.
