Dear Friends and Supporters -

Just a quick update here on the latest news related to soring. Earlier this week, Dina Dargo reached out to let us know of some terribly distressing news. Elvis Wilson of Nashville uncovered a huge display on the exterior of the new Tennessee State Archives and Library that opened earlier this year, and Mr. Wilson was kind enough to provide us with photos documenting the pro-animal cruelty display. 

The Nashville ABC affiliate, WKRN, covered the story as well as the Memphis Flyer. Check it out and spread the word if you can. Here's the link to the ABC News piece: https://www.wkrn.com/news/local-news/tennessee-walking-horse-display-on-state-building-shows-tn-support-of-animal-cruelty-advocates-say/

This also aired on affiliate stations in Knoxville, Tennessee and Huntsville, Alabama as well.
