trigger: the ripple effect of gun violence
Trigger is a documentary that was produced in part as a response to the 219th General Assembly (2010) resolution “Gun Violence, Gospel Values: Mobilizing in Response to God’s Call” to shed light on the growing issue in an effort to “take responsibility to build public awareness of gun violence and the epidemic of preventable gun-related deaths.” Since the production of Trigger, there have been more than 100 screenings and discussions on gun violence across the country in the last year.
