Join your hosts, Angel and Eddie (Founder & Chair of Project End Gun Violence), as we discuss current events, politics, and hot button issues in the world from our unique and varied perspectives.

Once a month we will be welcoming PEGV's team of dedicated Steering Committee members as well as other anti-gun violence activists to discuss current legislation and recent news articles and to address our listeners and their members in promoting a larger dialogue on gun control in America.

Special Guest: Lori Haas, who has served as the Virginia Organizer of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence since January 2010.

After her daughter Emily was shot twice and survived the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre, Lori became personally involved in gun violence prevention efforts. She has worked with the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, the Virginia Center for Public Safety, Protest Easy Guns and Mayors Against Illegal guns. She has lobbied on Capital Hill in Washington and before the Virginia General Assembly for responsible gun laws numerous times. She promotes awareness of the issue by speaking to various groups from her perspective as a family member of someone who has survived gun violence.

We will also be joined by David Horowitz, co-chair of PEGV who has worked in the field of public health for over 20 years as a consultant to Federal Gov't clients, directing health communications and prevention campaigns focused on the areas of injury control, violence prevention & mental health.


We will be talking about the world's first 3D printed gun fired in America, the tragic shooting of a Kentucky 2 year old by a 5 year old boy with a rifle marketed to children & the California gun confiscation bill.
