520 |a "Mass shootings have become the "new normal" in American life. The same can be said for the public debate that follows a shooting: blame is cast, political postures are assumed, but no meaningful policy changes are enacted. In this timely and innovative book, Craig Rood reveals how the gun debate is about far more than just guns. He details the role of public memory in shaping the discourse, showing how memories of the victims of gun violence, the Second Amendment, and race relations influence how gun policy is discussed. Without advocating for specific policies, Rood suggests how we might discuss the issues more productively and move beyond our current, tragic impasse" --  |c Back cover.
