48: Cutting the Knot

Hosts JJ and Kelly Sampson join Victoria M Rodríguez-Roldán, the Trans/Gender Non-Conforming Justice Project Director at the National LGBTQ Task Force.

Together, we cover the idea that mental health is linked to gun violence, as well as how police brutality, racism, transphobia, homophobia, and misogyny are all part of the gun violence problem.
