Dear John,
Being confronted by the harsh reality of gun violence in the United States is an experience that transcends race, class, age, and geography. Every day, 100 people die and thousands of people are injured by guns. [1] And every day, gun violence rips away the right to determine whether to parent and the right to live in communities free of violence and oppression.
In this webinar, we will learn about the psychological impact of gun violence and hear about student and political activism organizing to empower and seek justice for victims, families, and communities.
Confirmed panelists include:
- Tishaura O. Jones, Treasurer of the City of St. Louis, Missouri
- Jessica (“Jessi”) Gold, M.D., M.S., assistant professor in the department of psychiatry at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis
- Damen G. Alexander, Jr., March for Our Lives STL, St. Louis University ‘22
- Elise Saulsberry, Interfaith and Outreach Associate at SisterReach
Sincerely,
Erin, Pamela, Caitlin, Elizabeth, Evonnia, Jessica, Kara, Nataley, Shireen, Brittany, Clay, Kylie, Magge, Rachel, Sha’Tisha, Veronika, and the Reproaction team
