About Smart City Memphis
Since 2005, this has been Smart City Consulting’s blog with the aim of connecting the dots and providing perspective on issues and policies shaping Memphis. Editor and primary author is Tom Jones, columnist at Memphis magazine, author of two books and a museum exhibition, and consultant on public policy and strategic planning. Smart City Memphis was called one of the most intriguing blogs in the U.S. by the Pew Partnership for Civic Change; The (Memphis) Commercial Appeal wrote: “Smart City Memphis provides some of the most well-thought-out thinking about Memphis’ past, present, and future you’ll find anywhere,” and the Memphis Flyer said: “This incredibly well-written blog sets out to solves the city’s ills – from the mayor to MATA – with out-of-the-box thinking, fresh approaches to old problems, and new ideas.” If you have questions, submissions, or ideas for posts, please email Tom Jones, at tjones@smartcityconsulting.com.
Nice to see a Bill Day cartoon that brings out United We Stand, instead of Divided We Fall. We don’t identify with being American anymore. It’s more about the color of our skin, our economic bracket, what section of town we live in. And a study that says this and a study that says that. Divide, divide, divide. I want to say goodbye to identity politics and hello to us all being Americans.
Bill Day is now an ex-Memphian. He moved to Florida last year.
Anonymous: We know. We blogged about the loss of Bill to Memphis when he moved south. We continue to post his cartoons because we are honored to have an award-winning cartoonist sharing his work with this blog.
I am grateful to Smart City Memphis for the continued support of my cartoons. While I could no longer make a living in Memphis, it will always be in my heart, and where our middle son still lives.
We are honored to feature your cartoons here and are grateful to you for your graciousness in allow this to happen.
