    • Medicine

Black and brown communities have borne the brunt of gun violence for decades. But when it comes to the national debate about gun safety or gun violence prevention, their efforts have largely been overlooked. Now that new constituencies have come to the table, how do we make sure POC don’t just have a seat, but a real voice? Guests: Kayla Hicks, Director of African-American & Community Outreach for the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence (CSGV); Reverend Jeffrey Brown, Baptist minister and President of Rebuilding Every Community Around Peace (RECAP); Anthony Smith, Executive Director of Cities United; and AU Hogan, Associate Director and Chief of Streets for Life Camp.
