A message from our president, Ellen Lehman...
We’ve all heard the hateful language that has been bandied about concerning our country’s past and our present. As we’ve watched the story unfold in the news before our very eyes; we’ve seen intolerance, bigotry, hatred, and violence at work nearby.
It’s time we sent another strong message that we stand behind our community and resolve to do our best to protect it from those who might attempt to tear it apart.
We cannot stand idly by as the vitriol and vortex of hatred grow.
That is not the Nashville way and, lest we forget: WE ARE NASHVILLE!
In an effort to take a stand in support of ALL Nashvillians, we plan to take out a full page ad in The Tennessean with the below language. We need your help by listing your name in support of this statement. We ask that you review this language, and give us permission to list your name on the ad.
This is a timely matter, and we need to move quickly. Please support this effort by putting your name on the list, and share this opportunity with as many others as you can.
On behalf of Nashville Unites and its leadership which includes Bishop Joseph W. Walker III, Ben R. Rechter, and William C. Koch, Jr., thank you for your consideration.
Ellen Lehman
