It's The Guns with Shannon Watts and Angela Ferrell-Zabala
Description
Firearms are the leading cause of death for children and teens in the United States. With a record-breaking number of mass shootings, research has shown that 59% of adults, or someone they know, have experienced gun violence in their lifetime. There's no denying that the U.S. has a gun problem. So why are lawmakers doing nothing to change that? This week on Sorry For Apologizing, Missy sits down with Shannon Watts, Founder of Moms Demand Action, and Angela Ferrell-Zabala, the first-ever Executive Director of Moms Demand Action, to discuss this glaring issue. Specifically, why are freedom and guns so inextricably connected? Why did it take a group of moms to inspire cultural change? What is the government's role in perpetuating gun violence? And for those who feel helpless, what can the average American do to get involved? Brought to you by Rescripted. Find Shannon on Instagram here and Angela here.
