Saturday, November 23rd,
2013. It was just another
day in America; an
unremarkable Saturday on
which ten children and
teens were killed by
gunfire. The youngest was
nine; the oldest was
nineteen. White, Black and
Latino, they fell in suburbs,
hamlets and ghettos. None
made the national news.
There was no outrage
about their passing. It was
just another day in the
death of America, where
on a daily average - seven
children and teens are
killed by guns.
