‼️ Check out this event on February 4th at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy!
Many competing lenses frame the primary causes or drivers of the unique and multi-faceted problem of gun violence in the U.S., lenses that invoke perspectives on crime, race, mental health, immigration, and other contentious issues. Moreover, the topic of gun violence results in extremely heated, bitter, and politically-divisive policy debates. This will be a moderated discussion with a panel of experts who have competing views on how best to frame or define the problem of gun violence and priority policy solutions.
Featuring panelists:
– Jane Coaston, Senior politics reporter at VOX
– Jonathan Metzl, MD, PhD, Professor of Psychiatry and Sociology, Director of the Center for Medicine, Health and Society at Vanderbilt University
– Rebecca Cunningham, MD, Professor of Emergency Medicine, Director of Injury Prevention Center, and Associate Vice President for Research-Health Sciences, University of Michigan.
