Guns are Normal and Normal People Use Guns: Public Webinar 1 of 7 on Guns in America
📍 SUMMARY This is Module 1 (of 7 total) of a free public webinar I offered in spring 2024 on “Ten Essential Observations on Guns in America” (a.k.a. the Sociology of Guns). In this first session, I explore some of the best available recent data that speak to the widespread ownership of firearms in America. These facts also inform my fundamental perspective on guns and gun owners: Guns are normal and normal people use guns. This video consists of about one hour of lecture by Professor David Yamane and 30 minutes of Q&A. You can find the course syllabus and a link to the materials for this specific module here: https://davidyamane.com/public-webinar-syllabus/ 📍 SUPPORT Putting out materials like this is part of my mission to educate people and enrich conversations about guns. I have never paywalled my work, so it is free to you. But the work is not free to me. If you would like to support my efforts, please consider the following: *Like and share my videos. This helps others see this work which is my main goal. *Subscribe to my channel. Publishers and media outlets look at how many subscribers I have to assess my “platform” when considering my work.
