No one does. Sure, she'd sometimes been close to gun violence, like when the house down the street from her childhood home in Texas was targeted in a drive-by shooting. But now she lived in Oregon, where she spent her time swimming in rivers with friends or attending classes at the bucolic Umpqua Community College. And then, one day, it happened: a mass shooting shattered her college campus. Over the span of a few minutes, on October 1, 2015, eight students and a professor lost their lives. And suddenly, Kindra became a survivor. This empathetic and ultimately hopeful graphic memoir recounts Kindra's journey forward from those few minutes that changed everything. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt wasn't easy. Every time Kindra took a step toward peace and wholeness, a new mass shooting devastated her again. Las Vegas. Parkland. She was hopeless at times, feeling as if no one was listening. Not even at the worldwide demonstration March for Our Lives. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut finally, Kindra learned that - for her - the path toward hope wound through art, helping others, and sharing her story. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKindra's journey was not an easy one. She faced countless setbacks and tragedies along the way. But she refused to give up hope. She found solace in art, using it as a means to express her emotions and heal her wounds. She also became an advocate for gun control, speaking out at rallies and advocating for change. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite the challenges she faced, Kindra remained positive and hopeful. She knew that her story could inspire others and that her journey was not over. She continued to share her story, hoping to make a difference in the world. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the end, Kindra's journey was a testament to the power of hope and resilience. She had faced unimaginable tragedy, but she had emerged stronger and more determined than ever before. She had learned that the path toward hope wound through art, helping others, and sharing her story. And she knew that she would continue to walk that path, no matter what lay ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 594g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 143 x 210 x 22 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780316462099\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kindra Neely","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44099337584890,"sku":"9780316462099","price":10.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1665763025193_book.jpg?v=1665932083","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/numb-to-this-memoir-of-a-mass-shooting-9780316462099","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
