Freedom From Gun Violence: Reframing the Gun Debate

For decades, the gun lobby has controlled the debate — casting unlimited gun access as the ultimate expression of freedom, while dismissing every safety measure as an attack on constitutional rights. It's a narrative that's kept us stuck, even as the vast majority of Americans support commonsense gun reform.

It's time for a new frame.

Join us for a conversation with Gloria Pan of MomsRising on a bold new way to talk about gun violence — one that reclaims "freedom" as our value, not the gun lobby's. True freedom means the freedom to learn, worship, gather, and move through daily life without fear of gunfire. When we live under the constant threat of violence, our rights become theoretical rather than lived.

In this webinar, we'll explore:

  • Why traditional gun violence prevention messaging — policy lists, statistics, tragedy — hasn't been enough to compete with the gun lobby's fear-based narrative

  • How "freedom from gun violence" reclaims patriotic language and connects our cause to movements like FDR's Four Freedoms and the Freedom to Marry

  • Practical language for talking to gun owners, lawmakers, and persuadable audiences

  • How to respond to common opposition talking points

  • A policy agenda that restores real freedom and safety

Whether you're an advocate, organizer, or just someone tired of watching this debate stall, this webinar will give you the tools to help shift the conversation — and the country — toward real solutions.

Speaker: Gloria Pan, MomsRising
