Ep. 31 Pastor George Nicholas and Sherman Webb-Middlebrooks discuss the issue of gun violence as a public health concern. They explore the historical roots of gun ownership in America, particularly its connection to the control of Black people, and the disproportionate impact of gun violence on Black youth. They also highlight the need for upcoming community events to address the culture of violence and trauma that perpetuates gun violence.

"The presence of gun laws itself has not proven to be the kind of deterrent in order to keep ourselves safe. It's a cultural thing." - Pastor George Nicholas
