Group seeks volunteers for human chain honoring The Covenant School

• The demonstration will take place from 5-5:30pm on March 27. You can register to participate online.

State of play: The group's goal is to enlist 13,000 people to form a 4-mile chain that weaves through Centennial Park and down Charlotte Avenue.

Flashback: The group organized a similar demonstration last April that drew 10,000 people across 3 miles.

What they're saying: "This peaceful event is an opportunity to link arms, unite hearts and remember those who have lost their lives due to preventable firearm tragedies," Nicole Floyd Smith, a co-founder of Voices for a Safer Tennessee, said in a statement.

• "We will honor their legacies, and support the survivors, through our shared commitment to continue to work for change."
