Does a gun really protect you?

In this workshop, you’ll learn to re-examine your views and question common perceptions–often untrue–about guns and gun violence. You’ll view the documentary “Bowling for Columbine” and discuss your perceptions before and after the film.

Topics include:

• The power and influence of the media regarding guns and gun violence.
• Why teens pick up guns.
• Does the fear of people different from ourselves divide us and lead to violence?
• Does a gun more likely to help you or hurt you?
• Critical thinking and questioning perceptions.
• Leadership skills.
