Blount County mom fights addiction stigma
Generation Gunned DownVirginia Tech. Sandy Hook. Parkland.Tragedy after tragedy, all following a pattern that’s become all too familiar. The immediate grief and survivor’s remorse of those left behind, for some, will turn into activism to hold people accountable and try to prevent this from happening again.Then, the community begins to self-assess — did they do enough — until sadly another school shooting occurs and the the struggle to cope and overcome repeats in some other community in the United States.Across America, nearly 230,000 children have experienced gun violence on their school grounds, according to the Washington Post. A team of 15 journalists from WUFT News traveled to Littleton, Colorado, Parkland, Florida, Washington, D.C. and Toronto, Canada to learn about these tragedies, what has changed and the solutions some are calling for.And those on the front lines — everyone who has attended school from 1999 onward — are part of Generation Gunned Down.Here are their stories.
Silenced Grace and her team at WUFT News dug through decades of data and watched more than 100 hours of clemency hearings to uncover the consequences of Florida’s voting rights policy over the years. Findings included: *Gov. Scott’s administration denied 61.3% of civil rights restoration cases on the spot. *Gov. Scott restored significantly less voting rights to felons than any other governor in the last two decades. He averaged 384 restorations/year, whereas the others restored rights to between 1,270 to 38,558 felons a year on average.17.6% of voting age African-Americans in Florida were disenfranchised due to felony convictions. This was true for just 8.5% of other voting age Floridians.The full investigation can be read here.
