In this episode of Guns Unpacked, we are joined by Dr. David Yamane, a sociology professor at Wake Forest University, to discuss his book, Gun Curious: A Liberal Professor's Surprising Journey Inside America's Gun Culture. Dr. Yamane shares his journey into gun studies and becoming a gun owner as a lifelong liberal. He explains the evolution of gun culture, its contemporary focus on self-defense, and what the future may hold. We also explore his experiences navigating gun debates from various perspectives and his thoughts on bridging the conversation between opposing camps.
You can purchase his book Gun Curious from the ASU CSGS "Books for a Better Gun Debate" bookshelf on bookshop.org.
