The Trauma of Gun Violence

Night after night in Black and Brown communities in Hampton Roads it's the same story - multiple shootings, oftentimes involving our youth. Norfolk Police Chief Larry Boone says gun violence is a public health crisis. Citizens in Portsmouth have taken to the streets in protest to stop the violence. Hampton residents are installing solar lights on their homes with the hope that the lack of darkness will curb the shootings. The question is, "what can we all do to get guns off the streets and young people engaged in positive activities?" We ask this question to our guests - Bobby Kipper, CEO of the National Center for the Prevention of Community Violence (NCPCV), and Cameron Bertrand, Founder and President, Violence, Intervention and Prevention (VIP), and a victim of gun violence.
