One Year Later

Short Film | 8/12/2020 .. On the morning of August 4th 2019 there was a mass shooting in the historic Oregon District in Dayton OH were we lost nine lives. This marked the 250th mass shooting in America, just 13 hours after another shooting in El Paso TX. Now one year later, many people still try to heal from that night - along with myself. During the evening there was a small vigil held with a moment of silence with some of the family of the victims, people who were there that night as well as others paying their respects. I made a small video highlighting the vigil .. Some of us never knew you, but we won’t forgot you: Jordan Cofer, Derrick Fudge, Lois Ogelsby, Saeed Salah, Logan Turner, Nicholas Cumer, Thomas McNichols, Beatrice Warren-Curtis, Monica Brickhouse .. The quote in the video was written by Dion Green the son of Derrick Fudge. .. At the time my girlfriend and I witnessed this shooting from our living room window of our apartment. I wrote an essay called "WE WITNESSED A MASS SHOOTING" about our experience.
