Concert to End Gun Violence
Portland’s own Norman Sylvester
will perform on stage with other mu-
sicians Sunday, Sept. 25 for the Con-
cert Across America to End Gun Vi-
olence. The local event is being held
from noon to 6 p.m. at Pioneer Court-
house Square, downtown, in conjunc-
tion with a concert in Brooklyn, N.Y.
Sept. 25 was designated by Con-
gress as a day of remembrance for
murder victims. Ceasefire of Oregon
and other advocates for reducing gun
violence will use this day to remind
our elected officials to do more to
keep guns out of the hands of dan-
gerous people. The event will give a
face to the 11,000 Americans who are
murdered with a firearm each year,
and the 20,000 others who die from
gunshot suicides and unintentional
shootings.
“Our goal is to give Portlanders a
chance to voice their thoughts about
gun violence and to share with peo-
ple the many ways we can cut gun
violence through education and legis-
lation,” Ceasefire officials said. “We
also will provide information about
suicide prevention.”
About one person dies every day in
Oregon from a self-inflicted gunshot
wound.
