TheVoiceOfJoyce The NashVillager gives us a glimpse at life in a purple state. They just halted an execution by lethal injection because they couldn’t find the man’s vein. They’re proud of increasing the size of their parks and realize they need more within a 10 min walking distance of everyone. They’re seriously discussing relationships and intimacy in the 2 nd half of life with a gerontologist, pastor and sex therapist. Call in and help yourself and others. Plus the lower grades are ditching cell phones. Perhaps Americans will follow Scandinavians and go back to pen, paper and books? There’s more.

TheVoiceOfJoyce The NashVillager covers issues that concern all of us. They’ve got a poll showing 6000 lost jobs this year and it’s increasingly difficult to purchase gas and food. No one has buying power and folks are stressed. They’re not voting for Trump, if they’re independent. Tennessee is considering not participating to paid athletics, especially if you’re black. Considering Black citizens are being denied representation and some are being harassed and have to fight for re- registration? There’s more, are Tennessee’s concerns yours ? If not, write TheVoiceOfJoyce@Earthlink.net and share your concerns. Thank you.

TheVoiceOfJoyce The Supreme Court legislated to negate the voting rights act, that Jews and Blacks fought for with their lives in 1965. Now, under the Trump administration, voting rights are once more under attack. Flimsy excuses have been given for destroying the Voting Rights Act, but it aims to destroy the minority vote. My good friend, in North Carolina, a registered voter for 40 years, a woman of color, has just been removed from the voting rolls? She has her documents showing her voting record and was removed. She’s waiting for reinstatement. The majority of this Country are white voters, I thought most were decent and there would be a great swell of voting for anyone except Trump and his preferred candidate. Trump has stated, he doesn’t care about our finances or our Education, healthcare, affordability, don’t vote for Trump to have carte Blanche for the next two years. Vote to destroy Republican power and send Steve Cohen from Tennessee back to Congress. Go with friends, register and vote. We will overcome this latest challenge.

TheVoiceOfJoyce The Southern States continue partisan gerrymandering because they GOP legislators know they can’t win by denying all middle class and poor Americans their rights. Since GOP LEGISLATORS favor white supremacy, corporate power and billionaires, they resort to partisan gerrymandering. They can be defeated with higher voter registration and voting. We have the numbers to win and we must.
