From Muskets to M16s: America's Unique Relationship to Guns

Journalist S.E. Cupp will convene a diverse group of experts to unspool the history of gun use in America, through its founding traditions, military and domestic conflicts, key legislative moments and political shifts in the culture. The conversation will also explore what makes our nation’s relationship to guns so distinct from other nations, beyond our founding convictions.

Featuring author Ryan Busse, Midwest Regional Director of the National African American Gun Association Chad King, and University of Chicago Law School professor Alison LaCroix.
