SUMMARY: In a moving 27-minutes Quiet No More tells the story of reverend Sharon Risher‘s process of dealing with her anger and her journey to forgiveness. In 2015 she lost three family members after a white supremacist murdered nine people at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina.

So now that I am in this place and in this time I am going to use this voice that God has given me and I’m going to sing from the rooftops about how this has changed my life and how I’m able to help somebody else..”
