BONUS: Black And Up In Arms
Listen now
Description
A bonus episode from NPR's Code Switch on a topic that makes headlines in the U.S. more than almost anywhere else in the world: gun ownership. The debate over the right to bear arms stretches back all the way to the beginning of this country. And it's a fierce one. But how that conversation sounds has a lot to do with who you focus on. On this episode of Code Switch, hosts Shereen Marisol Meraji and Gene Demby ask what it means for Black people to be gun owners in the United States, and how history informs that reality.
