Fatal car crashes increased an alarming 35% from 2022 to 2023. Today @TNHSO launched Operation Southern Slow Down to increase awareness about the perils of speeding and enhance safety through dedicated enforcement measures. Let's all do our part by slowing down and staying safe.

I’m remembering the joy and light that Kylie brought to our world on what would have been her 22nd birthday. Remember Kylie by spreading kindness for others, just as she did. Your love and warmth are missed and you are forever in our hearts sweet girl. Love you always Ms. K 💖🕊️

Today we celebrate our Nation’s independence, which signaled not only our own freedom but ignited hope across this world. That hope is a thread that weaves us together in unity and is our greatest responsibility to nurture and protect as we continue in pursuit of its promise.🇺🇸

A young life filled with so much promise, courage, hope, & dedication left too soon. Knoxville mourns the sudden loss of Officer Wisbens Antoine. Hearts are with his family & fellow officers. Although his journey was short, his legacy of serving others lives on inspiring us all.

A profound loss. Bob Booker was a civil rights hero, a public servant, and a prolific author whose impact on preserving and celebrating African American history extends far beyond a lifetime. His remarkable life is a celebration of courage, passion, and a commitment to justice.
