Beyond Thoughts and Prayers: Socialist Solutions to the Gun Crisis

Danny Katch speaks in this session recorded at Socialism 2022. Gun violence–from mass shootings to homicides to suicides–is on the rise, worsening an ongoing crisis and feuling a “law and order” backlash. This meeting will lay out how socialists can reject the failed “good guys vs bad guys” framework of both the NRA and police departments–and respond to the sometimes conflicting demands of public safety, decriminalization, non-violence, and self-defense.
