S2 E18: “This isn’t just the NRA with a Latino coat of paint” – Talking About Guns with Latino Rifle Association

TAG: Talking About Guns

In the latest episode of TAG, we chat with Latino Rifle Association President, P.B. Gomez, about the deliberate irony of the organization's name, how the LRA is opposed to certain cultural norms of gun ownership, why gun “laws with good intentions have consequences for marginalized communities,” and his goal of making more gun safety education content available in Spanish.

Dr. Siegel also joins us for another edition of “Siegel’s Scope,” where he talks about police shootings of Black victims and how the issue is being framed inaccurately. He explains why rates vary so much across the country and why body cams and implicit racial bias training are not the right solutions.
