Remembering Covenant, one year later

Last year, in the wake of the shooting, students showed up to the state capitol steps with signs in hand, carrying the message that they wanted their legislators to do something about the violence. We invited a panel of high school students to This Is Nashville to share what they and their classmates were going through. One year later, some of them are back to tell us about what’s changed, and what hasn’t. We'll also talk to former NPR Morning Edition host David Greene and Old Crow Medicine Show musician Ketch Secor about Louder Than Guns, their upcoming documentary and intimate dive into conversations around the gun crisis; and Nicole Floyd Smith of Voices for a Safer Tennessee about the Linking Arms for Change event happening today. Today's guests: • David Greene, former host of NPR’s Morning Edition • Ketch Secor, musician, Old Crow Medicine Show • Sophie Kavalali, member of Mayor’s youth council • Israel Perez, student, Pearl Cohn High School • Nicole Floyd Smith, co-founder and vice chair, Voices for a Safer Tennessee Learn more: • This is Nashville | Community responds to the Covenant School shooting • WPLN News | Covenant School finds ‘a beacon of hope’ amid painful anniversary This episode was produced by Magnolia McKay.
