How to confront mass shootings
The mass shootings in Buffalo, New York, and Uvalde, Texas, are a shock to our collective sense of security.
In addition to those two high-profile incidents, the Gun Violence Archive lists at least 14 shootings with four or more victims in the U.S. just over the Memorial Day weekend. Solutions for such violence seem beyond the reach of law enforcement officials and elected leaders.
Today on Native America Calling, Shawn Spruce asks Native experts about ways to approach the prevention and healing of violence.
To everyone impacted by the horrific elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas: We grieve with you. We pray with you. We stand with you. And we’re committed to turning this pain into action. pic.twitter.com/TIYjdmfKVP
