State of Safety, a new statewide nonprofit dedicated to reducing gun violence across Oregon, will show a free screening of 101 Seconds followed by a town hall meeting in Pendleton on Sept. 22.
The film depicts the debate concerning gun violence in Oregon following the Clackamas Town Center shooting in 2012. The screening, set for 3 to 7 p.m. at Blue Mountain Community College, is part of a two-month tour of Oregon, bringing the documentary film 101 Seconds to people across the state to increase awareness about the issue of safe gun storage and to have a dialogue with communities about their views on what we should do to reduce gun violence. State of Safety is hosting the series of film screenings throughout the state. At each of the locations, we will show the documentary film 101 Seconds and then conduct a town hall-style meeting with community members in attendance.
