Join us on Radio GAG for The Wheels on the Bus Go Round and Round. A bus load of gun violence prevention activists were in NYC for Guacathon 2024. On the bus, we met up with Scout Cardillo from March for Our Lives and Bulletproof Pride. We discuss how this national GVP, youth lead organization is working to address the intersectional issues facing the LGBTQIA+ community at an upcoming advocacy day in DC.
Beep! Beep! Out on the street... New York City Council Member and one of GAG's "Fierce Queenz", Eric Bottcher introduced legislation requiring gun stores to display graphic imagery, in addition to warning signage, that conveys the health dangers of firearm ownership. GAG President, Jay W. Walker delivers inspiring words at the event.
For show and tell, Change the Ref and March for Our Lives have collaborated on theshotline.org...a new way to contact your representative about gun violence. AI technology has re-created the voices of those shot and killed by guns so they can call our representatives in hopes of changing gun laws. Our in Memoriam is for the Apalachee High School shooting victims in Winder, GA.
