Show Notes
Governor Dannel Malloy last month announced he'll bring together a panel of community leaders and experts for the first time today to take a look at ways to reduce the urban violence that takes the lives of young men, mostly minority and poor, in often random and senseless acts of violence.
While those numbers are decreasing in some urban areas around the nation, including in Connecticut, they remain higher than would be tolerated in more affluent communities.
A focus on the numbers ignores the lives behind the statistics, including the families that love victims. Nor do numbers get to the root of the problems behind the violence.
