Choosing Courage: Taking Action to End Gun Violence
Join us for an important conversation on Thursday.
We are once again galvanized into action by the most recent horrific mass shootings in Buffalo, New York and Uvalde Texas. Moms, Dads, teachers, activists, athletes and an energized public are demanding meaningful change.
Join Futures Without Violence, national leaders, and gun violence survivors in a virtual event calling on all of us to choose courage by taking action to stop gun violence and the conditions that enable it. Congress is negotiating legislation now and our communities are ready to act. Come learn about strategies to reduce gun violence, the role of child trauma and how we can support young men and boys with positive solutions for prevention.
Speakers:
- Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL)
- Shannon Watts, Moms Demand Action
- Erica Ford, LIFE Camp, INC.
- Ben Fernandez, National Association of School Psychologists
- Gary Barker, Equimundo: Center for Masculinities and Social Justice
- Sari Beth Rosenberg, Abbey Clements and Sarah Lerner, Teachers Unify to End Gun Violence
- Bing Liu, Academy-award nominated filmmaker of Minding the Gap and All These Sons
Gun violence is preventable. But, it will require courageous leadership from elected officials and all of us. Join us in this fight!
