Episode 19: The Impact of Mass Shootings and What We Can Do to Help
Today’s episode is a bit different than usual. We are talking about the prevalence of mass shootings in our country and honoring those lost in the most recent mass shootings in Atlanta, Georgia and Boulder, Colorado.
We will be discussing the taboo conversations that often come up after mass shootings, focusing on decreasing the stigma of mental illness and erasing the connection of mental illness to mass shootings. Despite polarizing beliefs and politically charged arguments, we all want the normal occurrence of mass shootings and the fear they bring to come to an end.
What we’re talking about...
This episode features songs written by youth brought to you by the non-profit organization MyTuneIn.org.
