How do we talk about it? How might we address it?
We are living within a gun violence epidemic. Is it acceptable? Is it inevitable?
Are there policies and practices that could prevent not just a small portion of gun violence, but deliver game-changing improvements in public health & safety?
Please join this conversation about the kind of future we want to live in.
Tuesday, January 23 | 7-8:30PM
First United Church of Christ | Northfield, MN
Questions that will shape our discussion:
- Why is it so difficult to talk about gun violence solutions?
- Why the chasm between what the public wants in order to prevent gun violence, and what lawmakers are willing to consider?
- What steps can we take to lessen the toll of gun violence?
