KERA's Think

The link between gun violence and family violence


Listen Later

Gun violence reduction programs are often run by men and targeted to men. Meanwhile, Black women who are victims of domestic violence often are ignored. Abené Clayton is a reporter for the Guardian’s Guns and Lies in America project. She joins host Krys Boyd to discuss why Black women are especially vulnerable to gun violence and community violence, why root causes aren’t being addressed, and why the outreach programs that do exist are ineffective. Her article is “Two women make sense of a lifetime of abuse and gun violence: ‘How did I get here?’”
