Honoring those who marched 60 years ago on Bloody Sunday in Selma. #Selma #BloodySunday

@BuckReising Our community and its citizens come first and thanks for making that a priority on your show today. You served the public well providing important information and a voice during this tragic school shooting. Sadly I know it’s not the first time you had to do this. Thank you Buck.

Nashville Fire Department retrieves the goalpost from the Cumberland River and it is being turned over to Vanderbilt where it will probably be cut up for fans for a donation for the SEC fine. @VandyAD @VandyFootball @NashvilleFD #Vanderbiltgoalpost #AnchorDown

The remaining section of the goalpost loaded by our Nashville Fire Department and delivered to Vanderbilt. Lots of NIL money will be raised for sections of this piece of Nashville sport’s history. @NashvilleFD @VandyAD @VandyFootball #anchordown #vanderbiltgoalpost

I’m hearing reports that the Cumberland River is experiencing low tide.

@PierreTABC @ThisWeekABC Thank you for documenting your family. My family was enslaved at Andrew Jackson’s plantation in Nashville. I go back to the Heritage frequently to learn more about how my ancestors lived.

[David S Ewing @DavidSEwing]

Mourning the loss of Rev. James Lawson. Thank you for your vision, leadership and changing Nashville and American history.

The biggest Nashville eclipse in the 19th century was in 1869 and most people gazed toward the sky through rose colored glass. @NashSevereWx #Eclipse https://t.co/nXhiS8MOU8

@EvanShawMumford @theryman This is a “fantasy poster” of a made up show that never happened. Hank Williams died on January 1, 1953 and was no scheduled at the Ryman. Loretta Lynn was 19 in 1953 and not yet been discovered. Patsy’ career had barely started in January 1953 and she was not known in Nashville.

Our committee dedicated a plaque to Lutie Lytle with @freddieoconnell last week the first woman lawyer in Tennessee and Kansas, the first African American woman lawyer in the South and the first woman law professor in the U.S. #lutielytle #Nashville

[Nashville Bar Association @NashvilleBar]

Yesterday we celebrated the unveiling of the Lutie Lytle Plaque and the Justice A. A. Birch Building, recognizing the incredible trailblazing life that attorney Lutie Lytle led as
Tennessee's first female lawyer and the first African American woman lawyer in the South.

1950 Nashville bus sign for African Americans who by law has to sit in back of the bus. Note a similar sign above the woman’s head on a Nashville bus designating the front for white passengers. @WeGoTransit @freddieoconnell #Nashville
