In a September 18th piece, Kimberly Phillips writes about an upcoming event where UConn ARMS, along with the Connecticut Scholars Strategy Network and Yale School of Public Health Firearm Injury Prevention, will host a Sept. 25 screening of the documentary, “The Tennessee 11.”

Panelists for the event include state Rep. Renee LaMark Muir from Deep River; Megan Ranney, dean of the Yale School of Public Health; Nelba L. Márquez-Greene; and two members of the Tennessee 11.

The Tennessee 11 film follows the project Convergence facilitated with Builders, convening a diverse group of eleven individuals with varied experiences with firearms and opinions about them, gathered for three days to try to come to consensus on policies that could be implemented in Tennessee. The group’s commitment to working across divides and their consensus solutions continue to make an impact across the country.
