Moms Demand Action Author Speaker Event including Q & A with Katherine Schweit
2025-07-23 19:00 - 21:00
Please join us for a special evening as we welcome attorney, former FBI special agent and author Katherine Schweidt to talk about her book: How to Talk About Guns with Anyone. This event is for both gun owners and non gun owners to educate and inform in a practical, non threatening way without the politics! Kate brings deep knowledge of America’s unique gun culture and its link to violence. A member of the gun violence prevention team formed after Sandy Hook, she gathered best practices from experts across sectors. Her book covers key issues—background checks, AR-style weapons, ghost guns, video games, Supreme Court rulings, and the impact of guns on domestic violence and mental health. Her goal is to foster fact-based, solution-focused conversations on one of today’s most divisive issues. The book offers dozens of potential solutions and challenges readers to consider: What is your role in reducing gun violence? The evening will include listening, discussion and Q & A with the author. This event is sponsored by Hunterdon/Somerset Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America.
