'Living' Memorial Challenges Cultural Narrative Around Gun Violence

The video discusses the Gun Violence Memorial Project at the Chicago Cultural Center, designed by Michael Murphy and his team. It features four glass houses, each representing 700 Americans killed by gun violence weekly. The project includes personal artifacts from victims, shared by mothers like Pam Bosley and Annette Nance Holt. The memorial aims to change the cultural narrative around gun violence, drawing parallels to the AIDS Memorial Quilt. It highlights the diverse impact of gun violence and seeks to inspire policy change by connecting to the human dignity of those lost.
