You may have seen Abbey Clements share her story in one minute during the Freedom from Gun Violence segment at the DNC last week. Activist in Residence Nelba Márquez-Greene recently sat down with Clements for 45 minutes to discuss teaching after tragedy. Clements and Márquez-Greene share an inextricable link. Clements was a teacher at Sandy Hook School on December 14, 2012, where Márquez-Greene lost her daughter, Ana Grace. Since that fateful day, Clements, who has been an elementary teacher for 32 years, has been a gun violence prevention activist. Clements is the Executive Director and co-founder of Teachers Unify to End Gun Violence. She is also a strategic consultant on gun violence issues for the American Federation of Teachers and a member of the Brady Pac National Advisory Council. During this episode, Clements talks about her activism, survivor's guilt, and what it's like to discuss all of this in front of a mom who lost a child.
