Lindsay Ell On Why She Participated In Peaceful Protest In Nashville

Lindsay Ell spent Saturday joining a peaceful protest in Nashville over the death of George Floyd, and shared on Instagram, “We have to start speaking up and teaching each other there is only one kind of love," adding, "Racism is a learned behavior and we are far too educated of a society to let this injustice continue to happen."

She has now elaborated further on her decision to join the protests, noting, “It is easy to pretend to support something and then still not outwardly do anything about it. It is easy to think that we live in a world that has overcome racism and that we treat our brothers and sisters as equals. But sadly, that is not the case.”

She adds, “It is completely unacceptable that, as a society, we have let racism and discrimination continue to permeate our culture. It has plagued our world for far too long, and the responsibility falls to each of us to bring about change now.”

As for the rally, she shares, “It was such a beautiful moment of people coming together to talk about love and stand up for one another. It was the perfect embodiment of 'being the change you wish to see in the world.'"
