Soapbox Diaries S5 E6 w/ Ricardo Franklin

from Soapbox Diaries · host Tina V. Bryson

Our guest today is Ricardo Franklin, a gun violence activist and community outreach coordinator with the Fayette County Sheriff's Office. His role involved fostering the connection between the community and law enforcement. I am on my soapbox today about reducing gun violence which is at epidemic proportions in our nation. In many instances, the debate centers around the second amendment, but there is so much impact that gun violence has on our society at large. In Lexington, one mother chose to act. After her death, her son Ricardo stepped up to continue the work she started.
