Petition To Change Racist Street Names In Nashville

Change the names of streets in Nashville metro area, including Forest Hills, that honor and glorify Civil War leaders and battle sites and the founder of the KKK: Robert E Lee Drive, Confederate Drive, Jefferson Davis Drive.

Why is this important?

Nashville has a long history of racial injustice. We must end glorification of slavery and racism by removing these tributes. Atlanta has already done the same to its Confederate Drive. It’s time, Nashville.
