44: The World Turned Upside Down

It's the first full-length episode of Brady's series on racial justice, gun violence, and gun violence prevention! JJ and Kelly Sampson, Counsel at Brady, are joined by Dr. Saul Cornell, the Paul and Diane Guenther Chair in American History at Fordham University. Together, they speak about the ways the modern gun debate intersects with the history of race relations in America, what you need to know about the history of the 2nd Amendment, and why bumperstickers don't quite work when talking about history and race in the US.
