Mural Highlights Dolly Parton’s Black Lives Matter Quote

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) – Tourists are flocking to Nashville to see a new mural of Dolly

Parton that celebrates her position on Black Lives Matter. Mural artist Kim Radford said

Dolly fans from around the world have contacted her about the colorful mural she painted

last week. Radford had already decided to paint the mural when she read a quote from

Parton in a recent Billboard magazine story in which she showed her support for the

movement. Radford said she’s had Dolly fans from as far away as Dubai reach out to her

about the mural.
