When Dr. Jessica Beard began working as a trauma surgeon in Philadelphia, she turned to local news to understand why there were so many firearm-injured patients arriving at her hospital. What she found was not helpful.
Very little mention of root causes. Very little mention of possible solutions. The way gun violence was framed in the media made it all seem so, well, inevitable. She wanted to change that.
Enter Jim MacMillan, a Pulitzer Prize-winning Philly photographer on a mission to change the way gun violence was reported in his city. Jim is the founder of the Philadelphia Center for Gun Violence Reporting (PCGVR), a non-profit that is educating journalists about better ways to report gun violence, with much of its work drawing on the research of Dr. Beard, who is now PCGVR’s director of research.
PCGVR works closely with victims and survivors of gun violence in an effort to change the narrative from “gun violence is inevitable” to “gun violence is preventable.”
