In this episode of Need to Know, Dr. Nsenga Burton takes on one of America’s most urgent crises: gun violence against children. From tragic church shootings to everyday community tragedies, kids are paying the price while lawmakers hide behind “thoughts and prayers.”
Dr. Burton exposes the gun lobby’s outsized influence, the hypocrisy of politicians who refuse to act, and the deadly consequences of weak legislation. She calls for immediate reform—highlighting proven policies from other cities that work—and urges viewers to demand action by writing to Congress. This isn’t just politics. It’s about saving lives and securing our children’s future.
