We are in desperate need of composition notebooks! Incarcerated folks use them to write, draw, and create while locked behind bars. That's something we want to support. If you do, too, consider sending us some! No spiral-bound notebooks, please. Mailing info below. 👇

Today is the 16th year mark of the Platte Canyon High School Shooting. In 2007, on the first year mark, the Keyes family shared this message, and we want to share it again now.

Those in TV: what images are you using as your b-roll? Is it images of the event itself playing over and over again? Consider the hundreds of thousands of people that you are retraumatizing. People know what these shootings look like. Consider focusing on memorial imagery, etc.
