Winter Storm Updates. Plus, How Nashville Is Celebrating America 250
Mayor Freddie O’Connell has declared a state of emergency for Davidson County after Winter Storm Fern left us coated in at least a half inch of ice. We’ve got the latest on that, plus: The America 250 program faced a ton of challenges ahead of our nation’s sesquicentennial, but here in Tennessee, plans are in motion for a grand celebration. What will the birthday party look like here in Nashville — and will it tell the truth? Host Marie Cecile Anderson sits down with John Dichtl, president of the American Association for State and Local History, and Ashley Howell, executive director of the Tennessee State Museum, to find out more.
