Taylor Dawson and Mark Cunningham are empowering Tennesseans to reclaim control of their lives as a communications team at the Beacon Center for Tennessee based in Nashville. They join Garrett today to discuss culture and politics in Tennessee and share their perspectives as transplants from Alabama and Washington, D.C. to the Volunteer State. They also talk about the forgotten Tennesseans who are often overshadowed by Nashville’s growth, why both of them have fallen in love with the state, and what other states in the region can learn from Tennessee’s rising prosperity.
