These Business Women Back Kelly For Mayor Monday, April 5, 2021
Sixteen businesswomen are publicly endorsing Tim Kelly as Chattanooga mayor via an open letter in response to opposing candidate, Kim White’s recently released 10-point plan to uplift women throughout Chattanooga. Many of these business owners witnessed first-hand how Kim White handled business dealings in her prior role as president of River City Company when she introduced and ushered in the city’s first Business Improvement District (BID) – now known as the Downtown Chattanooga Alliance. Business tenants had no voice in the process even though annual assessments self-imposed by property owners (totaling $1 million a year through 2029) are passed down to business tenants based on their square footage according to their lease agreements. The assessment is also passed on to the public through price increases when they stay at hotels or dine at restaurants within the district boundary.

There’s something powerful about wearing a message on a T-shirt; something vulnerable about putting it on your body. You’ve committed to your message, and it’s there in plain sight across your chest for everyone to see.
Feminist activists have been using T-shirts to challenge a culture that denies women and others their basic rights for decades and to keep pushing social justice movements themselves to be more inclusive. In the same way that posting a feminist or anti-racist meme on social media is not a substitute for the hard work of political organizing and action, there’s certainly a limit to the T-shirt’s political power. Without any further activism behind it, a T-shirt is just cotton fabric. Yet, fashion, like social media, can increase visibility, which in turn can make a political message more accessible and approachable, and more widely seen, forcing itself into the cultural conversation.
