What We Are Reading Today: Children Under Fire by John Woodrow Cox

Washington Post journalist John Woodrow Cox’s Children Under Fire lays bare the human cost of things that cannot be counted when it comes to children and gun violence. 

Cox investigates the effectiveness of gun safety reforms as well as efforts to manage children’s trauma in the wake of neighborhood shootings and campus massacres. 

Gary Younge said in a review for The New York Times: “Statistics on this issue have become so familiar that many Americans have become numb to the society they describe.”
