At rallies across the country on Saturday, students called for stricter gun control and a commitment to fight gun violence. We talk to a young LA student activist about his experience growing up dodging bullets, and get perspective on violence nationwide from Jill Leovy, who has spent 10 years reporting on gun violence in LA County.
