Every region has its own culture of music, dance, food, language, faith expressions, and more. With the fast pace of life these days, it takes intentionality to keep those aspects of culture alive. Here in Franklin, Tennessee, we have someone keeping square dancing and clogging alive. Join us at the table as we sit with Tommy Jackson to hear about his Rocky Top Revue.
