Taylor Swift: I’m asking the Capitol Commission and the Tennessee Historical Commission to please consider the implications of how hurtful it would be to continue fighting for these monuments. When you fight to honor racists, you show black Tennesseans and all of their allies where you stand, and you continue this cycle of hurt. You can’t change history, but you can change this. 🙏

@taylorswift I started this petition! I’ve reached out to Rep Powell to discuss the removal or concealment of Forrest’s statue off I-65. Rep Powell is very excited and he and I are planning on meeting next week to discuss moving forward. It would mean the world if you wanted to join that meeting!!
