Maj Toure Explains the Racist History of Gun Control


Listen Later

I sat down with Maj Toure, founder of Black Guns Matter, to discuss his perspectives on systemic racism, the history of gun control, and why all Americans should value the Second Amendment. He explains how early gun control policies were purposely designed to disarm black Americans and argues that modern gun laws continue this legacy. Although the voters who support gun control don’t generally harbor racist intent, the fact remains that the burden of legal punishment falls most heavily on the black community. Maj believes that this has been a long-running experiment to acclimate Americans to gun control, while concealing its harms by focusing enforcement on marginalized communities, whose struggles are largely misunderstood or ignored by both conservatives and liberals. He also shares his experience educating urban communities about safe gun ownership, conflict resolution, and how to navigate the obstacles created by gun control.
