MASON, Tenn. – The Tennessee Comptroller issued an unusual appeal last week to residents of this small, majority Black town, which occupies fewer than two square miles in rural west Tennessee.
“In my opinion, it’s time for Mason to relinquish its charter,” Comptroller Jason Mumpower wrote in a letter mailed to each one of Mason’s 1,337 property owners.
Mumpower urged local residents to “encourage your local officials to do what’s necessary to allow Mason to thrive. There is no time to waste.”
State comptrollers, responsible for financial oversight of local government, typically communicate directly with elected local leaders and not their constituents. “We have not issued a letter to citizens like this before,” Comptroller spokesman John Dunn said, noting it is “unprecedented for us to publicly call for a town charter to be relinquished.”
But the Comptroller’s unprecedented public callout comes at an unprecedented time not only for Mason, but for the state. Mason, located in the southeastern corner of Tipton County, now finds itself with some of the most coveted real estate in Tennessee.
It’s one of the nearest towns to the massive new site to be built for Blue Oval City, a key component in Ford Motor Co’s multibillion-dollar pivot to electric vehicle manufacturing.
Mumpower’s letter has infuriated Mason’s part-time elected officials, who insist they have no intention of ceding their town’s 153-year-old charter – which would subsume the largely African-American, majority Democratic community under the governance of Tipton County, which is predominantly white and Republican.
“This is our home. We were born and raised here. The majority of the town is homegrown people that live here,” Vice Mayor Virginia Rivers said. “He is trying to conquer and divide us. It’s akin to a hostile take-over and it’s not hard to figure out why here, why now.”
Town leaders are accusing Mumpower and other state officials of big-footing a long-ignored, largely Black community now that major investment is heading its way.
Mason is 60% Black and includes descendants of men, women and children enslaved in the area before Emancipation. For more than a century the town was led by White elected officials.
That changed in 2016, when fraud and mismanagement allegations led to the resignations of nearly all City Hall officials, all of whom were White. Mason’s current mayor, vice mayor and five of its six alderman are Black.
“It’s because of the Black people that are in office,” said Rivers, who first became Vice Mayor in 2021.
“And it’s because of all the places in the world, Blue Oval could have selected, they selected here. There’s no way Mason won’t prosper and grow. And now they want to take it away from us.”

The Comptroller’s office:
Yet again like in the past. New day, new Jim Crow-esque tactics, perfectly timed takeovers. This Black American town needs to be promptly saved without handing a damn thing over. The town elected mostly Black officials back in 2015. They’ve been trying to pay off the debt from when the town was previously ran by mostly white officials. Literally playing catch-up.
This ain’t nothing but a glimpse of what it looks like before eventually uprooting and displacing Black people off the land they have resided on since forever and where their ancestors labored said land as property in chattel slavery and the move into Jim Crow.
There’s a change.org petition to sign and share to get the word out there.
This person suggested to put Ford in the hot seat by sending a letter like this. Others are suggested to call their office.
This is the CEO of Ford’s twitter.
Something gotta give.
This shit should be on the news. But as usual, they make it known after the deed is done or not at all and you end up finding out years later.
Here is the image if anyone would like it. It took around 30 hours to figure out the "shapes" of these shadow creatures, since it isn't exactly well defined. Most of it is speculation on my side lol 😅. I am still working on the file for the cricut machine to cut the shadows in flat coloured heat transfer vinyl and only have Jin Woo as the printed vinyl. I'll post when that is ready if anyone is interested in it. I'm hoping to be able to have this printable in a bunch of sizes for bags, shirts, short, etc.
Again, the colours of the shadows are not true to character. They were chosen depending on my limited palette of vinyl colours. If I had chosen to only print the whole thing instead of cutting the layers of vinyl, then they would all have been different. I hope you all still like the work 😊
Was trying to get used to drawing on the new PC and looks like I’m getting there!

Out of curiosity I actually decided to sit down and watch this movie because of how much I love the main theme and found it had a kickass OST and wanted to draw a crossover. I’m still a bit disappointed in the lack of actual supernatural from the 2004 movie, but I still enoyed it a lot! I like to imagine that Boris would probably be Raul in this situation because I mean… who else?
Anyways, I have no idea why I put this amount of effort in this but I did! I think it looks pretty dang cool, but my hand hurts! Now don’t mind me as I imagine the Ink demon being a hot phantom who can sing… (what I wouldn’t give to be Alice)
