The City of Knoxville's African American Equity Restoration Task Force was set up largely to attract outside funding and investment to areas of East Knoxville that were devastated by urban renewal programs. But this past week, the task force took a small but significant step in awarding some small grants of its own to community groups. Scott and Jesse look at that shift in this week's episode and talk about why the task force remains controversial to some conservatives. Also: an attempt to remove a County Commission candidate from the ballot fails (and may backfire); a look at the District 3 school board race, which could tip the partisan balance on the board; some controversial proposed developments in South Knox County; and Knox County Schools sees improvements in its state reading scores. The guys look ahead to meetings next week of County Commission and a school board candidate forum.
