🧡 National Gun Violence Awareness Month 🧡
Today is Gun Violence Awareness Day.
This month—and especially today—we pause to honor the lives stolen, the families shattered, and the communities forever changed by gun violence.
Gun violence doesn’t just take lives. It leaves deep, invisible wounds. The pain echoes every day in the hearts of mothers, fathers, siblings, and children. It’s not just statistics—it’s our stories.
My own family has been forever impacted.
A loved one was shot and survived.
But my firstborn son, Donavan, was murdered by gun violence.
And we suffer every single day without him.
This is not just my story. This is America’s story.
We need change. We need action. We need to remember the names and faces behind the headlines. And we must never stop fighting for a future where no more families have to live this nightmare.
🧡 Wear orange. Speak their names. Demand better. 🧡
