ELON MUSK DONT CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE #LIVE ##LIVESTREAMING

Okay, so we're going to be talking about Elon Musk and his uh X AI and how it is based on he does

not care about black people. Let's get into it. Secret weapon to beat chat GPT is

hiding in Memphis, Tennessee. XAI is currently building a massive supercomput named Colossus in Memphis. It currently

houses 100,000 Nvidia H100 GPUs with plans to double its capacity to 200,000

in the coming months. The system is designed to train XAI's large language model Grock, which competes with

OpenAI's Chat GPT. This project represents a multi-billion dollar investment in Memphis, potentially the

largest in the city's history. It's expected to create over 300 highpaying jobs, but there are some concerns

regarding energy consumption and potential air pollution. And that's basically what is the issue.

We'll get more into it. Flooding black communities with airborne toxins. AI

company XAI is under Memphis. Their massive supercomputer AI facility colos

so much power that they're secretly running dozens of methane gas turbines without full permits. Aerial footage

showed 35 turbines in a historically black neighborhood pumping pollutants like nitrogen oxide formaldahhide

particular matter linked to asthma cancer respiratory illness into the air. The company only had permits to operate

15. The local grid couldn't handle Musk's energy demand. So instead of slowing down, XAI plowed ahead, risking

the health of already

unburders can do what they want, all while making profit, all while harming citizens and nothing ever happens to

them. They never ever reap the the never feel the repercussions of their actions.

That's because they don't live in the communities where they put up their factories.

X AI opened a massive data center known as Colossus last year. The facility is

next to historically black neighborhoods and runs on 35 methane gas powered turbine generators which emit

significant amounts of nitrogen oxide and other toxic chemicals. Elon Musk is

polluting the air of Tennessans. He is continuing and perpetuating environmental racism and environmental

degradation in our community. This project uh is an application for 15 gas

turbines, but we know today that they have 35 turbines and yesterday a report showed 33 of those in operation despite

the fact that the mayor of Memphis said only 15 of them were being used because that's what XAI had told him. They are

liars. They are abusing our community and they're exploiting us and it's having horrible ramifications. 17.2 two

tons of formaldahhide being sprayed into our air because of these gas turbines. Over 130 tons of nitrogen oxide, making

them a larger poller than the Memphis International Airport is happening right now in our community. And elected

officials and appointed officials have a responsibility to the people who they were elected and appointed to serve, not

to the billionaires and the oligarchs who are misusing and abusing their authority to hurt our community in

Memphis, Tennessee. Yeah. The thing is though, you can't expect much because who does Elon Musk

was working with? Donald Trump. And Donald Trump uh he rolled back a

um a court case basically that was for, you know, people for black people down

south in the community that had a power plant near a middle school. Okay? And

those people were suffering from cancer. They were dying. And Trump rolled that back. He ended that court

case. Okay, this is what we're dealing with now. And people will only think,

well, you know, it's just the black people. Guess what? Guess what? Eventually, it's going

to come to the middle class white people. And then you guys are going to start

crying. That's what's going to happen. Okay.

There's a silent takeover happening in Memphis, and the people most affected by it are being left in the dark. Elon Musk

is building a supercomput complex spanning several football fields. It will guzzle 150 megawatts of

electricity, enough to power a 100,000 homes and 1 million gallons of water a day, and it's all happening through

shady backroom deals. Local leaders in the community were completely in the dark. Utility officials who learned

about the project had to sign NDAs. By the time the public found out, it was already moving full speed ahead. Now,

it's becoming clear what this means for black Memphis residents. More pollution. According to NPR, black residents in

Memphis face some of the highest asthma rates, lowest life expecties, and the worst industrial pollution in the

country. Musk is relying on at least 15 gas powered turbines to fuel the facility, releasing pollution that

raises the risk of respiratory illnesses, heart disease, and premature death. Beyond air pollution, this

project will strain Memphis's power and water supply, consuming 150 megawatts of

electricity and 1 million gallons of water a day. Shockingly, local officials knew little before it was too late.

Memphis city council members weren't even brief before the news broke. The mayor, who supports the project, admitted that it came together at

breakneck speed, which is a convenient way to admit being part of a shady backroom deal. Memphis Light, Gas, and

Water has signed seven contracts with Musk's company, but refuses to release them. When NPR requested the documents,

they cited Tennessee citizenship laws to keep them secret. Meanwhile, Elon has stayed silent. No press conferences, no

community meetings, no answers about the project's impact. Xiai claims it will create 300 jobs. And this is how bold

they're getting. They're getting bolder and bolder with these, you know, these dirty

schemes. All right? They only care about making money and they're bribing the people that are placed in charge of the

safe in charge of making their residents safe in Memphis. Okay. Elon has plans with

company towns. You know, I don't know if you all know about company towns. It's

basically, let's say you have Amazon, right? Amazon buys your town, okay? And

if you lose your job with Amazon, you have to move out of that

town and go somewhere else. Okay? That's what you have to do.

That's a company town. They make the rules. They make the laws. Okay? They control everything. And

if you get fired, you have to leave. You and your family. This is what he's trying to

create. Okay? He is not for the betterment of others. He never was.

300 jobs, but only 37 listings exist and they're mostly in California. Supercomputing facilities are highly

automated, meaning few jobs will go to local residents. For a community already struggling with pollution and economic inequality, this project feels less like

progress and more like a burden dumped onto black Memphis residents without their consent. Memphis isn't a testing

ground for tech billionaires. It's home to people who deserve clean air, clean water, and a seat at the table. That's

what I mean. They said to create jobs. Those jobs are not going to go to those black residents cuz most of these black

res, they don't have they may not have tech experience. Okay? And the way Elon

runs his company, it will be racism there. Check out the lawsuits that Elon Musk had to face and what black

residents had to face working um black employees had to face during uh working

at Tesla. Okay, a lot of you guys are for a rude

awakening. Elon is not your

friend. Here's more right here that are being ran without a permit

in a city that has felon air quality. In a city that has four times the cancer

rate in South Memphis and Southwest Memphis in a city that has the highest

pediatric asthma related hospitalizations and ER visits in the state of [ __ ] Tennessee.

So now Elon Musky supercomputer in Memphis has 35 gas turbines that are

being ran without a permit in a city that has felling air quality. In a city

that has four times the cancer rate in South Memphis and Southwest Memphis. In

a city that has the highest pediatric asthma related hospitalizations and ER

visits in the state of [ __ ] Tennessee. Breaking federal law. He is violating the [ __ ] Clean Air Act. I

need us to continue to be in a [ __ ] uproar. I am pushing out this content because I need the city to

stand together. They have been getting so much backlash and the only reason the

Shelby County Health Department is responding now is because of all of this backlash. So, please continue to have

outrage. Next Friday, April 25th, please come to Fairley High School and tell

them to get this [ __ ] the [ __ ] up out of our city. on you, city of Memphis, for allowing this [ __ ] to be in our city

from the get-go. How dare you? And let me say this also. Don't come on this

video saying any stupid ass [ __ ] about crime because you cannot say that you care about the black community and you

don't care about all the [ __ ] issues. I would never be okay with kids not having clean air and clean water.

You It's facts. It's facts. This is the latest image of Colossus

facility in Memphis, Tennessee. If calculations are correct, there are approximately 156 Telsa mega packs

supporting the supercomput. Could be more around other sides of the facility. At this point, Elon Musk can't

complain if people want to go ham on his uh Teslers. This is your fault. You

chose to be a Nazi. you chose to um side with a tyrant and now you are, you know,

putting your facility in an African-American

community to poison them. That's what you're doing. Get

ready to put in operation all 35 of them. Will they need to reapply? Casey

Smith Alexander. Oh, he they are asking for a permit for

15 turbines, right? If big if they are given a permit for 15, will they need to

come back to you for another permit? Yes, if they are given a permit, we have

regulatory authority. Hold on one second. This is Kelsey uh Cassia Smith

Alexander, Shelby County, uh county deputy director of health. This is

what's going on right here. at that time over X AI. That means they will only be allowed to operate 15 turbines. When

they get ready to put in operation all 35 of them, will they need to reapply?

Casey Smith Alexander, deputy director. Yes, they would have to submit an application for a permit to operate the

But they didn't do that. They had a permit for 15 and they're running 38

additional turbines that on that facility. 33 of these turbines are operating today. We have geothermal

imaging that show and confirm 33 of these methane gas turbines are operating right now. That is ridiculous. Do we

have drones or a way to verify those 35 operational turbines? I'm not familiar

with the resources available to the health department, but I'm happy to check because if that is the fact and

they are 35 operating, they're asking for a permit for 15. I mean, it's just

that's fraud, isn't it? So, we need to we need to get on this in a different

way. My understanding is that there are turbines that are in operation now and they have not been permit to do so. And

so what is the process to shut them down until they are permitted? I'm going to defer to the health department and their

process that's currently open. Okay. My understanding is that there should not be any turbines in operation as of

today. However, it has been stated on record that there are turbines 33 I

believe that are in operation today. And so my question is to become to the deputy director of the health

department. Can you confer or refute this? Number one. Number two, what are

you doing to shut them down until they have been permitted? And number three, can we file an injunction so that they

aren't shut down until they are permitted? Commissioner Sugarman, uh, I know Attorney Smith is coming up, but I

don't see the health department person here. Yeah.

Amazing. Fantastic. That is fantastic. Nobody really knows the

answer, you know. Memphis versus Musk. Shelby County

Commissioner learned from Kesha Pearson. Elon's X AI is operating 33 gas turbines

without a permit. Yeah, we did that already. Um, you

know, basically Elon's just getting the right to do whatever the hell he

wants. That's the thing.

Okay, we're fighting on it on our own. They left the people out that live in this city. Memphis folks are watching

Elon Musk X AI computer supercomputer buy up more and more land and use more

and more resources and getting few answers. See what the people got to say.

Even a permit. You left the people out

that we are fighting it on our own each and every day. We ask questions

but we're not getting any answers. Businesses do need water to make their revenue. But that should never be put in

front of the drinking water needs of residents. And this without any environmental impact statement or even a

permit. You left the people out that lives in this city. We are fighting it

on our own. Each and they're left out of it because you know

all the people that are responsible for the the well-being of the people of Memphis have been bought.

Okay. Facility neighbors historically black neighborhoods is powered by 35 pollution

spewing methane gas turbines. the companies using without legal permits

looked at as the path of least resistance today I will make say we need

redress and repair we don't need continual pollution we've seen this

story before where polluters come to our city whether it has been TVA and their

valero plant sterilization services and their ethylene oxide plant we have continued to be looked at as the path of

least resistance. Today, I will make and explain to our Shelby County Health

Department that we are not the path of least resistance. We are a resilient community that deserves the human rights

of clean air, clean water, clean soil, and a healthy environment. We should not

continue to bear the burden of the negative health impacts of this facility

and its rapid pace and movement.

Well, talking about artificial intelligence company, talking about his artificial intelligence company, XAI

supercomputer facility in Memphis, Tennessee says, "Perhaps this is where our new god will

form." This is weird. This is weird about Elon Musk. He is weird. He is weird. He is weird. But we got uh the um

the FCI data center uh or supercomputer center uh training um from uh beginning

installation to start a training in 19 days, which is the fastest that anyone has ever gotten a supercomputer uh to

train. Um and is that in that new building off the side? That's in Memphis, actually. It's in Memphis.

Yeah. So, so that's where you were? Yeah, I see. Memphis, the capital of ancient Egypt. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Right. Yeah. You're

bringing what? That's where our new Memphis the capital E. I got to look that up. He says this is where the their

new god will be forming. Weird vibes, man. Weird vibes

about this dude.

Okay. Weird weird stuff about this man, about Elon Musk.

turbines at the XAI data center, something it's not permitted for. However, Memphis Mayor Paul Young said

it's for XAI to be shut down. The supercomputers caused controversy for months. And earlier this week, the

Southern Environmental Law Center reported there were 35 gas turbines at the XAI data center, something it's not

permitted for. However, Memphis Mayor Paul Young says, "I've talked to uh the XAI leadership team. There are 35, but

there are only 15 that are on. Uh the other ones are stored on the site." The mayor addressed community members at a

mayoral forum hosted by that Beta Epsilon Omega chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorian. We know that's a lie

though. We know that's a lie. Incorporated. He wasted no time

addressing XAI. We are doing it. They are paying to build two substations and

so they will actually be able to remove the turbines from that area. Across

town, Representative Justin J. Pearson alongside other leaders and activists heard from folks deeply troubled by the

XAI environmental impacts. [Applause]

The community is concerned because we are dying. The community is concerned because our kids have asthma in our

missing school because of asthma emergencies. Kishan Pearson, president of Memphis Community Against Pollution,

says with a population heavily affected by asthma, XAI just isn't right for the

Bluff City as Shelby County's cancer rate is four times the national average according to health officials. People

say we're going to get exploited and my response is my goal is to get exploited for our good so that we benefit from

what this can do for us. Still, Mayor Young is looking to the future and what he says XAI could bring like tax dollars

and long-term economic growth. I know there are significant environmental concerns and our goal is to make sure

that we're working through those concerns to ensure that the community is protected and that Memphians get a win.

Sydney Gray action. I'm sorry. I don't believe that dude. I believe he's just telling lies. He's possibly been paid

off. That's the way I see I see he possibly could have been paid

off when it comes to

this.

Okay, this is cold water pressure in the

kitchen. This is fill up water. We're also seeing that they're saying that big tech is stealing America's power

grid. Okay, let's keep going in for storage. Those

are the things we have to fill up to flush the toilets. So, you can see the sediment from the data center. Wow. And

that's just from the water coming out of your faucet. Yeah. And this is what's in all

the probably and that's not counting anything

fixtures and toilets and the lines that come underneath the house. It's

overwhelming because you you really feel like you are up

against this huge wall that you can't penetrate. There's nothing that that you

can do. And they I'm here in Mansfield, Georgia, driving

by Meta's new 2 million square foot data center facility. Facilities like this

are being used to power things like chat GBT and other AI tools that are becoming

integrated into our daily life. Data centers going to be a very hot item. This entire supercomput is built to

power gro. We see data centers as the most exciting asset class. Neta is

building a 2 gawatt plus data center that is so large it would cover a significant part of

Manhattan. But data centers come with big costs. From light and noise pollution to the environmental impacts

to the potential rising costs of energy bills, these facilities put extraordinary demand on the power grid

and require entirely new infrastructure. [Applause]

Oh my god. They should be responsible for that, not us. Search the internet

for profits that Meta has made, Amazon, Microsoft, they can afford to pay for

their own generation. We came to Georgia to ask two questions. What's the true cost of the AI revolution? And who

should be paying for it? Your house is here and the data

center right there. It's less than 400 yards, Beverly. my peace and my therapy. We

decided that this was it. It was perfect. I was actually raised probably five miles from here. Felt like I'm

home. The data center that's now the Morris's next door neighbor happens to be owned by Meta, the company, you know,

for Facebook and Instagram, but has also been breaking into artificial intelligence. They started construction

on this data center campus in 2018. Definitely changed everything. They

destroyed the environment, taken down all the trees across the road. Beautiful

pines, beautiful forest. The light pollution is We don't have to have a nightlight in the house. Walk around at

night. I can see everything that bright.

This is a video of the dust from Facebook where the construction was. right

now. The wind blowing in all of this stuff from across the construction

across the road. This is all from Yeah. Yeah. I was standing on my front porch.

I think eventually that affected our wellwater. We're on a whale here and we

started having issues with our whale in 2018. have to replace the hot

water machines and a dishwasher because of the sediment that's coming in. A lot

of what the Morrises are facing is from the polluting effects of this massive construction. But that's only one part

of the story. There are serious costs to communities once data centers are operational too. To explain that, we

have to back up for a second. I wouldn't blame you if you were asking yourself what the heck is a data center. Their

origins date back to early clunky supercomputers or mainframes in the 1950s and60s. And then in the 90s with

the birth of the internet, the modern data center was born as a way for internet providers to connect businesses

and the world to the web. In the 2010s, data centers became larger as they became critical to new cloud storage. To

the cloud. With the cloud, we share a sync photo that allows us to all work on the same documents. Everything from your pet photos to entire workplaces to files

for video streaming like this video you're watching right now or in the cloud. Today we are in the midst of a

tectonic shift in processing needs as large as the birth of the internet. Artificial intelligence a

transformational moment for disentered demand. But the thing is AI processing

demands are much larger. One report showed that a Google search using a chat GBT like AI feature used 30 times as

much power as a normal Google search. In the next three years, data center use of electricity is expected to double or

even triple. And the state of Georgia has the fastest data center growth in the entire country. The two biggest

reasons data centers come to Georgia are that electricity rates for industrials, which is the class that they're in, are

42% below the national average. And the second biggest one are data center tax breaks. They received over $180 million

in tax breaks last year. The week we were in Georgia, a showdown was happening at the state capital over two

bills tied to data centers. Senator Heller had proposed two different bills

and one of them was SB34 which data centers the operational cost of data

centers from raers to the data center themselves. And what is SP94? That is

the Consumer Utility Council, a legal advocate

for these result of mounting residential anger and the work of dedicated advocates

across lives 50 miles away from the capital in Fet County. Huge industrial

project plucked in a residential area. This was the original plan, 122

acres, and then the development authority got involved. In 2022,

officials in Fyet County voted to annex and reszone an additional 412 acres for

a data center campus. Fyetville City Council voted 5 to zero in favor of the

development despite passionate opposition from some local residents. The site was then purchased by QTS which

is owned by Blackstone for $153.8 million. These speculators,

investors are secretly buying up land right next owners and it was all

done so that when we all went to the four public hearings between the county

and the city, it was a done deal. This is the one that's currently under

construction. And this is where Jean and Joe are. Gan and Joe Marshall live on

the edge of Fagetville in Faget County on an 8 acre property. This driveway

almost the line for Fyet County versus Fagetville where QTS um probably

located. We have absolutely no say in anything that happens over here. Despite

their vocal opposition to the project, living next to construction on all sides of their

home complete reality last two years. They do nightly pores over here and the

other building the lights are shining and there is noise 3:00 in the morning

4:00 in the morning. So they don't stop. Oh yeah, sure. We went to visit Nikki

Vanderlice who heads up the Fyet County Economic Development Authority, a non-governmental agency that played a

central role in the marketing of the land for data center development. People have to be really taking this

seriously but unfortunately many are not. Okay. First is going to be these data centers. Okay. Then you're going to

have I wonder if people like I said I want people to know about company towns and that's what he wants or these 15minute cities. I wonder if people know

about that if they people so love Elon Musk. Okay. Because this is coming to a

suburb near you. Many of you don't see what's

coming. You're so much in love with Trump and MAGA this, MAGA that that you

don't see fascism coming. And you think fascism is only going to hurt non-whites. It's going to hurt everyone.

Especially if you live in the suburbs and he's destroying your oxygen

development. For residents who live alongside these data centers, life has

become very difficult. What do you say to them? Well, I I say to them that there's a couple of things. One, we were

very transparent. The development authority was very open about attracting a data center and there wasn't any

resistance until it came to their property specifically. Vanderlice says data centers are good for the community

even if some don't see the benefits yet. In 2021, that property paid $36,000 in

property taxes total. In 2024, on raw land, it paid $1.13 million

in property taxes. That contributed $760,000 to our local board of education. I'm apologetic that they're

being impacted, but I also see the benefits of what the companies are doing and how they're how they're improving

our economy. And so, there's the balance. She could say this because she doesn't have to live in these towns that have to deal with

Elon's nonsense. She'll probably still have power where she's at. But these other

communities, they won't because they're

poor or no match money how much no how no matter how much money they make, they're poor compared to what she makes

and Elon makes and his and his buddies.

bringing money into the economy while people are suffering.

Balance that when you have, you know, 200 out of 120,000 people that you have

to balance what's what's the highest and best use for the whole of the community. It's just the height of selfishness to

imagine that one county's benefit to the huge detriment of 158 other counties in

Georgia that now have to pay higher electric bills is okay. It's not okay. It drives equity. It's very immoral,

too. That's Patty Durant. And as you can tell, she does not agree with Nikki Vanderlice. Patty is a longtime consumer

advocate, an expert on. And here's something else. Okay, here's a comment. And they wonder why they scream about

deregulation. Without it, corporations will always take profit at the cost of the people. This was all what it was

about, taking away wasteful spending. No, Elon was about destroying these

government agencies that kept corporations at bay from destroying the

common folk. That's what it was all about. We

are the waste. We are the swamp. That's what it was always

about. Less government. Less government means less government regulation. less

of somebody restraining the corporate monsters, the

oligarchs. We want less government. Yeah. Yeah. You tell them you want less government. Yeah. And the people who are

rich above you are laughing at you because when they have less

restraints, you know, they attack you, attack your home, attack your

business. Okay? No more free speech. You can't No more journalists coming after

making exposees exposing these corporate people, these corporate monsters. They're not people, they're

monsters. That's what it was all about. Make America great

again. The rich richer, the poor poor on energy policy. Who's been

raising the alarm about rising costs of electricity related to data centers? Are data centers going to drive up energy

costs for residents across the state. On May 1st, Georgia Power residential rate

payers experienced a 24% rate increase. Just since 2023, Georgia Power has

raised rates six times. And related to those rate hikes, remember those two

bills we mentioned earlier? We were with Patty as she was watching a live feed of the Senate floor. Today is crossover

day, which means any bill that does not get through one side of the House or the Senate to the other side is dead for the

year. And right now, Senate Bill 34 is not on that list. By later that evening, both bills had failed to get a vote. As

disappointed and angry as Patty was, she wasn't too surprised. Georgia legislators are getting soaked with

money from Georgia. Absolutely. It is clearly corrupting.

This is the utility CEOs in the country. Why is the poorest region of the country paying the

most to our CEOs? It's it's ridiculous how much money

that's what's happening. That is what's happening. They want the right to to gouge your eyes

out.

Okay. This this is what we're dealing with. This is what we're dealing with.

said to make America great again.

Our time in is crucial. Understanding what's happening all across of data centers is not slowing

down anytime soon. And tech billionaires have already been complaining about the amount of red tape involved in powering

this growth. getting energy permitted is like a very heavily regulated government

function. And if you're talking about building large new power plants or large

buildouts, that is just a heavily regulated thing. The regulatory body in question is the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, also known as FK, an independent, historically nonpartisan agency that regulates interstate

transmission of electricity, natural gas, and oil. But just last month, President Trump signed an executive

order placing FK under White House control. And he's been boasting about his ability to fasttrack new projects.

We're going to give very rapid approvals in the United States like with the AI plans under emergency declaration. I

in Memphis, Tennessee, Elon Musk. Okay. So that's basically what's going to

happen. That's what's going to go down.

All

right. All right. This is what's this is what we're

dealing with right now. Okay. So, um time to read this article right

here. Okay. political courage or corporate convenience rethinking XAI in

Memphis blackest communities. All right. In recent weeks, billionaire Elon

Musk artificial intelligence company XAI has found itself at the center of a mounting storm in Memphis with plans to

build and expand massive data center in the heart of South Memphis. Powered by

methane gas turbines, this project has become a flash point in an ongoing struggle between corporate

expansion and community protection. I acknowledge the goodwill and benevolence

of Mayor Paul Young. His intentions for Memphis are rooted in growth and opportunity, but good intentions are not

enough when people's health, lives, and futures are on the line. I long for a level of political courage and

ideological innovation in his administration's business and public safety strategies. So far, we've seen

too much political caution and not enough prophetic vision. According to a report, AAI has already begun operations

in the area, installing at least 35 methane gas turbines while only getting a permit for 15. Southern the Southern

Environmental Law Center has raised concerns about this saying that the scale of emissions from the turbines

necessities necessitates a major source permit due to the significant output of

nitrogen oxides and formaldahhide both harmful pollutants. These turbines are

pumping pollution into the air of predominantly black neighborhoods. Communities like Boxtown and Ko Lake in

Memphis 30 um 38109 zip code have long endured

environmental racism facing health risk from the industrial pollution. Facilities such as vesicle chemical and

sterilization services of Tennessee have been sources of contamination affecting air and water quality in these

predominantly black neighborhoods. While these proposed Bayala pipeline was halt

halted due to community activism activism, the lingering effects of these environmental injustices continue to

impact residents well-being. And who's holding the line for these communities?

Michelle Taylor, director of the Shelby County Health Department, took the rare and courageous step of publicly

challenging the mayor and the city to reconsider the public health implications of this project. She announced plans for a community meeting

to address growing concerns. Something she had she should be commended for in

transparency and integ. Meanwhile, grassroots leaders

like Kan Pearson and state repres uh state representative Justin J.

Pearson, co-founders of Memphis Community Against Pollution,

MCAP, are mobilizing daily to resist this project and protect our people.

Their warnings is clear. This is an innovation is environmental racism. The organization reminds us that community

protection is a spiritual mandate, not just a political strategy. On the other side of the argument, voices like Ted

Townsen of the Greater Memphis Chamber of Commerce and Mayor Young tout the promise of jobs and increase tax

revenue. Tax revenue. Jobs for who? Jobs for who? That's the

question. All right. These are the same arguments we've heard for decades used to justify everything from highways that

decimated black neighborhoods to industries that poison our air and water. But no promise of economic gain

can justify the human cost of unchecked corporate expansion. This is not just about Mus. It's about what and who our

leaders are willing to sacrifice in the name of progress. Mus record of exploitation, labor abuse, and reckless

innovation is well documented. Beyond Memphis, Elon Musk ventures have raised environmental justice concerns in other

communities. Okay. For instance, South Texas SpaceX operation criticism for environmental impacts on local

populations. Additionally, in as the Boring Company, another Musk company has

been cited for environmental violations related to its tunneling projects. These instances highlight a pattern where Musk

companies have been scrutinized for their environmental practices in various regions. Memphis should not be the next

experiment. As recently reported, there is still time to reassess the availability and values of this project.

We need the Shelby County Health Department, Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, andor

Environmental Protection Agency to conduct a full environmental review. We need real community input, not just

performative listening sessions. And we need city leadership that will that is willing to say no when the stakes are

too high. This isn't about the next election. This is about the long-term well-being of our people, our leaders,

our children, our neighbors. We need leadership that does not put black lives on the altar of economic speculation or

worse on the chopping block of billionaire expan experimentation. Memphis doesn't need another corporate

footprint. Memphis needs visionaries. Memphis needs defenders. Memphis needs leaders who love our people more than

they fear political fallout. And the administration, the chamber, and everyone watching, we're not opposed to

progress. We're just not willing to pay for with the health and safety of our people. If this is the future of

Memphis, I'm sorry. If this is the future Memphis is building is better be

one we all can live in literally. And that's basically what's happening here. Okay.

Um, blacks are being bulldozed here, but you have whites who are also affected.

Okay, I just showed you a video of whites being affected. And

um I don't know what to tell you, man, but it seems

that this is probably going to go through unless they fight really hard. Unless they start a, you know, a

GoFundMe and they could get money for good lawyers, good well-known corporate

lawyers that could fight off Elon Musk. Elon Musk

It's not going to stop until he gets what he wants on the altar of residents, especially black

residents. Okay, so that's all I got for now.

Um, you know what to do. Like, share, comment, and subscribe. What are your thoughts? Are you on the side of you

know Elon Musk be bringing jobs to the communities or are you on the side of that um the ends does not justify the

means he is going to poison a lot of communities um both black and white. All right, he

is going to be stealing power grids. Uh what are your thoughts? All right,

let me know in the comments. Like, share, comment, subscribe. Peace.
