How gun violence outside of schools harms millions of kids

From 2014 to 2023, communities across the U.S. saw more than 188,000 shootings within 500 yards of a school, an average of 57 shootings per day, according to a new analysis by The Trace. The report found that in 2023 alone, 6 million students had a shooting occur near their school. Olga Pierce, one of the journalists who did this analysis, joins William Brangham to discuss the findings.
