The Chicks were silenced over politics. 20 years later, those lessons
shaped country music's new generation.

Margo Price, Lindsay Ell and Harper Grae spoke to The 19th about the
ramifications of being 'too popular, too opinionated, too loud.'

It began with 11 words: "We're ashamed the president of the United
States is from Texas."

Natalie Maines, lead singer of The Chicks, couldn't have known how
that sentence about George W. Bush and the burgeoning Iraq War would
change everything for her and her bandmates, Emily Strayer and Martie
Maguire. Those words, proclaimed to a London audience on March 10,
2003, would echo through the rest of The Chicks' career
