Here’s how we change narratives of gun violence. We start with those most impacted, we tell stories with them, so that we can escape the small mindedness that treats gun violence as a bug in the system. Sadly, it’s a feature. https://t.co/GnlFD8skbf

The T in Boston is like the Sleestak of public transit: slow and treacherous.

[Peace Institute @LDBpeaceInst]

What is TNGV? Transforming Narratives of Gun Violence is our initiative alongside
@MGH_GVPC @EngageLab to explore the impact of dominant narratives surrounding violence, and to co-create story-based solutions.

A bunch of influential surgeons, including our partners at @MGH_GVPC, gathered in DC to push for a surgeon general report on #GunViolence. It’s time we treat gun violence as the public health crisis that it is. https://t.co/agh4OwOCpF @EngageLab

With Trust in Government Waning, Can New Technologies Make it Easier to Govern? My research with @tomasgna seeks to answer this question. https://t.co/GH288jfbrB via @knightfdn @EngageLab

[Eric Gordon @ericbot]

@miklb Very sorry you're not able to read the report to understand its meaning. It's there for you if you're ever curious.

[Eric Gordon @ericbot]

@miklb Some believe that it bypasses human or organizational actors and is therefore more trustworthy. This is detailed in the report. I encourage you to check it out.
