Exploring the roots of gun violence, the book challenges the notion that shootings stem from premeditated malice, instead revealing that they often arise from fleeting interpersonal conflicts. Through extensive research and immersive fieldwork in Chicago, the author illustrates how understanding the dynamics of these arguments can lead to effective interventions. By focusing on specific locations and critical moments, the work presents a fresh perspective on addressing gun violence, suggesting that solutions are within reach without needing to resolve broader societal issues first.
