Muslims Taking Over a Small Town in Tennessee
SHELBYVILLE, Tenn. - It has been nearly 20 years since Somalia last had a functioning government. Islamic jihadists now control most of the country-and sharia is the law of the land. Tens of thousands of Somali refugees have resettled in America in recent years to escape the chaos of their homeland, which is located in the Horn of Africa.
But the transition isn't going smoothly in one small town. At first glance, Shelbyville is your typical sleepy southern hamlet. It's nestled in middle Tennessee, where the walking horse is king. There's Main St., the local sheriff, a movie theatre. It's all very Mayberry, except for one big difference: the recent arrival of hundreds of Somali Muslims. Shelbyville is about an hour's drive from Nashville, in the heart of the Bible Belt. Like many Americans, the citizens of Shelbyville knew little about Somalia other than the 1993 Black Hawk Down incident, in which 18 U.S. servicemen were killed while battling warlords and Islamic jihadists in the Somali capital of Mogadishu. So when hundreds of Somalis began turning up in the town--many of them dressed in traditional Islamic garb--locals quickly took notice. They've had an impact here. Unfortunately, it's not been a good impact, said Brian Mosely, a reporter for the local Shelbyville Times-Gazette.
Mosely won an award from the Associated Press for a series of articles he wrote for the paper about Shelbyville's Somalis. I found that there was just an enormous culture clash going on here, he said. The Somalis were--according to a lot of the people I talked to here--were being very, very rude, inconsiderate, very demanding. Tthey would go into stores and haggle over prices. They would also demand to see a male salesperson, would not deal with women in stores Different People, Different Culture
Their culture is totally alien to anything the residents are used to, Mosely added. The problems extend to local schools--where some Somali students won't talk to female administrators. There have also been issues with local law enforcement. I'm not really sure whether that is because of experiences with the police in their country, or whether that's just the way their culture is, said Shelbyville's Police Chief, Austin Swing. Shelbyville is home to about 17,000 people. The town's Somali population is estimated to be between 400 and 1,000. Mosely says the Somalis have isolated themselves from the rest of the community. We're talking about people who have not had any experience with Western civilization, he explained. They don't know the language. Things like running water are a miracle to some of these folks...you don't take people from a totally alien culture, put them into a community, and then say 'alright, you must get along.' Little Chance to Adapt
Abdirizak Hassan is the director of the Somali Community Center in nearby Nashville. He says the state of Tennessee has no programs to help immigrants integrate into their new surroundings. They come, and the only thing they can do is go to work, and then after work they go back to the apartment, Hassan said. They're totally isolated and there's no interaction between them and the locals. He added that some have even expressed a desire to return to Somalia. A lot of them face eviction. They put them in an apartment complex that costs $600 a month. They can't get a job that gives them that much money, Hassan explained. And sometimes you have families, like, a single mother with eight kids, or seven kids or six kids, and you expect her to go to work in six months time with no English, no driver's skills, nothing? I mean, sometimes it's impossible. The locals, mostly, when they see a few hundred people in their backyard with a different look, strangers, you know, of course they have the right to be concerned, he added. But I think if the local authorities and organizations like ours do a lot of outreach, I think we can bridge the gap. So how did so many Somalis end up in rural Shelbyville? The answer can be complicated. The State Department helps resettle refugees from war-torn countries like Somalia in the United States.

MCKAMEY MANOR Presents Christina B. (Round Two)
This is the 2nd time Christina has taken the MM tour. This film is more of a documentary look at her experience, and not the typical fast paced account. You'll see expanded footage of the Pick-Up zone for example that will explain a lot of things that people are concerned about. Normally I don't show the behind the scenes secrets, but for this film I did. You'll also notice not a lot of edits in certain parts of the film, just extended single shots. Again, this is more of a documentary look at her time here at MCKAMEY MANOR.
Experience The Gaylord Opryland Hotel Nashville
The Gaylord Opryland Resort Nashville Tennessee. Thank you to The Gaylord for Hosting a Once in a Lifetime Holiday Experience.
The Gaylord Opryland Nashville, TN doesn't do anything small. An escape like none other, this 2,888 room facility can boast as the largest resort in Tennessee. Broken up into four main areas: The Delta, The Cascades, The Garden Conservatory and The Magnolia allows you to explore all day and still find something new even days later. You will definitely want to have a map with you on your journeys. I also loved that the hotel has information booths to help ensure none of the attractions are missed. Steve and I were graciously hosted for the weekend. We had visited Opryland a few times before, but to really get the true majesty of The Gaylord Opryland Hotel, I recommend staying for a long weekend. Lucky for us we stayed during the holiday season where we were able to rejoice in the brilliance of three million Christmas lights
Accommodations:
Our room was an elegant atrium room with a balcony overlooking the Cascades section of the resort. Steve and I had brought along a bottle of wine that we enjoyed while sitting on the balcony overlooking the magnificent gardens below. A country Christmas made the view extra special with thousands of twinkling lights to bring in the holiday spirit. Large and spacious rooms with comfortable beds make for a romantic experience. Tastefully decorated with southern charm that gives you the feeling of comfort after a high energy day exploring the surroundings. Several room options are available at various price ranges, but if you can splurge, I recommend accommodations overlooking the brilliance below.

The street comes to life in the evening, cars aren't allowed on the street and people are having a great time. This was a fun day and we really enjoyed ourselves

Until You Love Yourself: Prostitutes Reclaim Their Lives After Years of Violence and Addiction
Prostitution is a multi-billion dollar business in the United States. Some sources estimate the annual revenue at close to $15 billion. The sex industry and the illegal drug industry, which often live side by side, tear up women and use them til they throw them out according to The Rev. Becca Stevens, who founded Nashville, Tennessee's Magdalene and Thistle Farms. Stevens founded Magdalene, a residential program for women who have survived lives of prostitution, addiction and life on the streets, as a way to recover some of those women, give them a place to heal and prepare for a new life free of the dangers of the street. Magdalene is grounded in Stevens' belief that unconditional love has the power to heal.
