TN Politics: Memphis City Council Future and More

WKNO-FM

Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland is shuffling the deck at City Hall, which isn't unexpected in the second term of a city administration. But the city council may have a more substantial makeover in January when, for the first time, five out of thirteen council members will be African American women. 

This week, political analyst Otis Sanford also discusses former state senator John Ford's prospects of running for office, and the Memphis Public Library's new no-fee policy for overdue books. 

Reporting from the gates of Graceland to the balcony of the Lorraine Motel, Christopher has covered Memphis news, arts, culture and politics for more than 20 years in print and on the radio. He is currently WKNO's News Director and Senior Producer at the University of Memphis' Institute for Public Service Reporting. Join his conversations about the Memphis arts scene on the WKNO Culture Desk Facebook page.
