Okay.. . do not think I have ever been to institution that breaks the laws or rules like this!…read more Was placed in Medium security Facility over jail in Disciplinary because ''there's not enough room in jail'' to all the way S Nashville. And apparently if you even clear your throat "you're spitting on people". False shameless Davidson is huge; there's no shortage of precincts for one. There is even Sherriff's Office being constructed directly across from an older or current one. The super close bus stop is convenient. But place is so far out because everything far apart it is so convenient. Everybody there was entirely hostile and irresponsible. You wake up at 5AM by yelling before you even get out of bed for a meal. Then if you do not hear the quiet mumbling in 1 sec of waking up you get shut door which slams like not a little slot. And echoing throughout whole facility. With words like "give me all that smart ass, shit" I was like "i did Not say Anything" but went back to sleep. It is super cold temperature in here due to air conditioning they keep on max bc it makes you sleepy. If I do yoga they interrupt me. Then they reject every single one of my response. I am spitting on people and blah defamatory. Other claims to keep me in Disciplinary. I was denied phone from when I step in all the way to when I stepped out. They push me out practically. Sign THIS! They demand you to do things you do not even have the receipt for. The belongings sign. Or medical which you don't need or release of information which you absolutely should not do. When I am peaceful they are disturbance. When I talk to them they say I'm Cause of trouble. They stereotype themselves as if they are getting paid for it. The are getting paid as guards to uphold law I know that much. Funny thing about CoreCivic that run the facility is it is such great idea with all these rules how can they break it and mess it all up? It seems efficient with guidebook and how you access everything with organized approach. (Rights section was Removed.) First not given a handbook but ask for rules anyway. To see if medical was necessary, then I am denied med QA, and it was needed indeed for intake. If you do not do intake you do not get phone but Disciplinary? Good luck access the library for complete Inmate Handbook. After intake hygiene shower rule follow instantly. Denied shower for 48 hours. You know they only gave one right before being van off to court. Good luck doing yoga with cuffs too tight. When everybody else goes ahead they pretend I left court. I was placed separately. Because otherwise I might actually get to use rec and access phones. Or do yoga with cuffs too tight Court is dirty. You want shower direct after. Not before. And while I was being stripped of all these rights. Well court is playing their own thing w cam games. They did everything to break all those rules. Such as they took away etc/shoes/sheets which everyone is given. I got a single apple out of week or so stay where general pop not even disciplinary inmate got the apple every lunch or meal. I just had bread as I am vegetarian. I just had jelly & peanut butter. As deli and hotdogs apparently and hamburgers is all they give. They give hot meals in past tense now only like Detention Hills bc all they gave you is plastic boxes they all call tray. Small box got everything wrapped in plastic. Identical to downtown center. But completely no associated different CoreCivic ran legal place ... Was placed in a room I know you are supposed to clean before you leave. Was all ready dirty. I Cleaned it. Then moved me to a room in corner Extra Cold. That I can not clean. They claim I broke the plumbing on purpose. I was not offered a trash can or bag and everyone else room's they empty the trash but whatever. Only sink in jail I have ever faced with hot water. But w newly assign room which took forever, was not allow to 'go' After court. They claim the sink was taken off and replaced and the previous girl took it off. There is no *u*king way she would be able to take off a sink. Heard them fiddle with plumbing. So after strong flush was used for throw away packages from food. tray ridiculous box thingamajig. and fail I hear them do something with sink. Bathroom with no toilet and no sink with guards who ignore you walk by and not very agreeable when they do talk is literally no way to go. YOU WILL WAIT FOR WHEN I SAY YOU GO TO RESTROOM!! That is what I heard. Bowels do not wait for anyone. If you can not appreciate or respect that I would say you treat adult fellows like a toddler. Or it is just me. Because when you want you are just too super nice Detention Hills has same number claims it never change. it always the same wherever so keep track of your record But cops will arrest you for nothing. What false claims have not been so far accused? From fighting, resisting arrest, to breaking and entering, etc. This is really really quite absurd.

Come for the mandated incarceration, stay for Taco Tuesdays. It's conveniently located 25 minutes from the nearest bus stop, which is useful as DUI classes are taught next door and people potentially without a license for two years need to get some exercise too. It sits a bit behind the Davidson County Animal Services which now makes me worry a bit about Taco Tuesdays... it all makes a sick and twisted sort of sense now. But I digress... Whether you're dropping off, picking up, or just serving out a state-mandated sentence, it's not like you have a lot of choices in where you'll end up, but you could do worse.

Thank you very much for leaving a combat veteran who has survived six IED attacks mentally exasperated, shaking, and completely overwhelmed after dealing with your staff. I have given more to this country than any of you ungrateful, clock in and clock out pieces of shit will ever understand, and the way I was treated was absolutely fucking insulting. The way your staff treated me was disgusting. Not just rude, disgusting. The attitude, lack of empathy, disrespect, and complete disregard for basic human decency were unacceptable. I walked out of your establishment mentally exhausted, shaking, angry, and deeply insulted because of the way I was treated. You have absolutely no idea what someone may be carrying with them when they walk through your doors. You do not know what they have survived, what they are dealing with, or how much it may take for them simply to walk in and ask for help. Instead of showing even the slightest bit of compassion or professionalism, your staff made an already difficult situation significantly worse. I have served this country and survived things that most people will never experience, and I did not deserve to be treated like that. If you cannot handle treating people with basic respect, decency, and professionalism, then you have no fucking business working there. The entire experience was disgusting, disrespectful, and completely unacceptable. Fuck the way I was treated. I will not be returning, and I will make sure people know exactly how I was treated at this establishment. I am truly appreciative that you clock in every day and keep sending your tax dollars my way. Assholes.

Never forget where we've come from, that's why there are these Historical Markers to keep us moving…read moreforward. This one is on two sides and the first side reads: On 13 February 1960 124 students from Nashville's Historically Black Colleges; and Universities walked into Woolworth's, Kress', and McClellan's sat down at the lunch counters, and asked to be served to no avail. The students also targeted Walgreens, W.T. Grant, as well as Harvey's and Cain-Sloan department stores. Their goal was desegregate Nashville lunch counters. The student protesters experienced no violence until February 27. On that day at 'Woolworth's and McClellan's; white resisters threw the students from their seats, punched; kicked and spat upon them- Nashville police only arrested the student protesters. Eighty-one students were arrested and harged with loitering, and disorderly conduct. Two dayslater, the court fined each student $50. The took a principled stand, refused to pay the bail, and spent 33 1/3 days in jail. Due to the 19 April bombing of Attorney Z. Alexander Looby's home, a diverse crowd of approximately 3,000 to 4,000 people silently marched from Tennessee A&I State University to the courthouse, where Mayor Ben West met them at the steps. After an intense dialogue between Mayor West and student leader, the Rev. C.T. Vivian, Diane Nash stepped forward and asked the mayor if he "recommended that lunch counters be desegregated." The mayor agreed and the next morning the Nasville Tennessean read "Integrate Counters" - Mayor. On May 10, 1960, Nashville became the first major city to begin desegregating its public facilities when six downtown stores, led by Harvey's and Cain-Sloan, opened their lunch counters to African Americans. The Nashville Student Protest Movement to desegregate all public facilities did not end until 1964. [As for Yelp, I don't know why they INSIST on this being a review of Nashville.gov even though it has nothing to do with it. And the location of the pin is NOT 1000 Metro Courthouse. It's at 390 Fifth Avenue N. You can see the sign on Google Earth. But on this one, I'm just going to let Yelp win because on this one... YOU ARE IDIOTS. There. I feel better.]

That, boys and girls, is the address of the Nashville 5th ave lunch counter sit-ins. When I was a high school senior, I was one of the two people who graduated in the French class. The other one was named Matthew Walker. After graduation, I went to Vandy and he went to Fisk. The next thing that I learned about my friend was that he'd been in a sit-in at Woolworth's and was arrested. Later it came out that after he got out of jail in Nashville, he joined the Freedom Riders and was arrested in Mississippi. Matthew was pretty smart. I bet that if he's stayed in Fisk, he might have eventually become a doctor, just like his dad. No, he gave up all of that for a cause that he believed in. You have to really admire somebody like that. Five stars for the sit-in lunch counter stores.
