The Loyal Opposition: Supporting Public Education and LGBTQ Community and Political Activism in Sumner County
In this episode of The Loyal Opposition, hosts Len Assante and Michele Harbin welcome listeners to an eventful episode focused on public education and community activism. They discuss the importance of reflecting diverse voices in government and air
dissent against the super majority’s policies. The show kicks off with an announcement about the No Kings Rally in Gallatin, Tennessee, organized by Sumner Indivisible to protest the Trump administration' policies. The first guest is Jesse McKinney from PFLAG Hendersonville, who talks about the upcoming Affirming Sumner Pride event, a
family-friendly pride celebration aimed at supporting the LGBTQ community in Sumner County. The discussion covers the event's logistics, planned activities, and special guests, including the first trans person elected to public office in Tennessee, Olivia Hill.
The second segment features representatives from Public School Strong Tennessee, Lindsay Doss and Jean Myers, who discuss their organization’s mission to support honest, equitable, and fully funded public schools. They talk about the importance of
community involvement in local school board meetings, the impact of recent legislation
like HB 793, and the loss of federal funding for school supplies. They also emphasize the role of activism and advocacy in influencing local educational policies.
