In the essay 'Sit Beside Me in the Darkness,' MissMargoPrice takes us through her protests following the Covenant shooting in Nashville.
Over the next few days, I would come in contact with one of my greatest inspirations. I had tickets to see Joan in Nashville for the release of her new bookEmmylou would be moderating the conversation, and I was beyond excited to see two of my favorite artists together. They graciously invited me back to their green room before their discussion panel began. Emmylou introduced me to Joan and told her I had been on the front lines of what was happening in Nashville.
It helped when I was told that I would be joined by Amy Grant, Sheryl Crow, Ruby Amanfu, Allison Russell, and Will Hoge. We met on the Capitol Steps on the morning of April 18. Ruby stood beside me, sensing how apprehensive we both were. She reached out and grasped my hand, squeezing it tightly. “We’re in this together,” she leaned over and whispered, setting my mind at ease a bit.
As we sat there and had a very civil conversation, we all agreed that this was bigger than political parties. The majority of Americans, both on the leftthe right, were looking for answers. Governor Lee had been personally affected by the shooting; his wife was very close to one of the victims. He was candid when he said that he too wanted change.
