Despite decades of policy ideas, pouring millions of dollars into the problem, and a slow pace of gun control measures, the United States hasn't made much progress on curbing the epidemic of gun violence in our country.For the past 25 years, Prof. Jens Ludwig of the University of Chicago has examined the questions of: Why does gun violence happen, and is there anything we can do about it? In his new book, Unforgiving Places: The Unexpected Origins of American Gun Violence, Ludwig—who is director of the University of Chicago Crime Lab—discusses why we've been thinking about the gun violence problem in the wrong ways.Drawing upon behavioral economics, he explains that most shootings are not premediated; rather, the result of arguments that escalate into violence. Using data-backed interventions, Ludwig introduces new ideas beyond policy and policing to get at the real root causes of gun violence today.

Devin: What is your superpower?Marcus: I have a few of them, but the one that sticks out most with me and I realized that I have optimism is such a superpower that I possess. I'm not a negative person. The cup is half full, not half empty to me.Marcus McAllister consults with governments and NGOs around the world on one singular topic: ending violence.He doesn't work on any other aspect of crime than that. Seeing it for the public health challenge it is, he works to help communities stop the spread of violence.He's become one of the most respected leaders in the country on this topic. You can see him in this photo with President Biden below.Marcus helped me see violence in a whole new way.I will ask an audience of people from all walks of life, do they believe that—people in communities across this country, specifically black and brown, disproportionately affected communities—do they believe that disrespect can get you killed? I tell you, unanimously, almost everyone raises their hand because they can all think of a situation—whether we agree with it or not—they can think of a situation where just a little disrespect turned into somebody being shot, especially with young people across this country.His follow-up is powerful:So my next question is, I ask them how many people in the room raise their hand if disrespect is against the law. Almost 99 percent of them—no one raises their hand.So we just established that everyone believes that something as simple as disrespect gets shootings that get escalated into more homicides in the inner city, and yet it's not against the law.Ponder that for a moment. Let that soak in.People are dying because of triggers that weren't crimes. Imagine the challenge for those seeking to interrupt the cycle. It's not about locking people up who are committing pre-murder crimes.If it's not against the law, but we know it can get people killed, you have to have a specialized type of work—which we do—to handle disrespect before it gets to the point of multiple homicides.So we kind of police the disrespect; we get in front of things before they happen. Be sure to watch or listen to the full episode to pull all the insights Marcus uses to prevent violence.In his remarkable work, Marcus leverages optimism and love for others as a superpower.AI Podcast Summary* Marcus McAllister is the guest on the podcast discussing his work in community violence interruption.* He has been involved in violence prevention and intervention for over 20 years.* Marcus started his career in Chicagoland working for an organization called Ceasefire, which later changed its name to Cure Violence.* His work involves diffusing conflicts in communities and using personal experience and credibility to intervene in violence.* The work aims to prevent disrespect and conflicts from escalating into homicides or multiple shootings.* Marcus emphasizes the need for specialized work in community violence intervention, separate from traditional law enforcement, due to the unique nature of diffusing conflicts.* He trains individuals in mediation, conflict resolution, risk reduction plans, and identifying high-risk individuals.* Marcus highlights the importance of optimism and love in his work, which he considers to be his superpowers.* He shares a specific example of using optimism and love to successfully resolve a conflict between two individuals who had engaged in violence.* Marcus can be reached through his website, McAllisterConsult.com, or on Instagram @marcusmcall. He is available for consultation and training on community violence intervention.How to Develop Optimism As a Superpower“I don't have anybody's major degree, but I've been to the White House,” Marcus says. “I've been a keynote speaker at Yale Law School.” He credits his optimism and love for his fellow man for helping him achieve such success.He shared an anecdote about preventing a violent response to a violent act that likely saved at least one life.I had a situation years ago where a guy had beat a guy upside the head with a pistol real bad, and he reached out to me. At this point, he was trying to see if I would—if I call myself a violence interrupter, a peacemaker, “Here's your opportunity.” He explained to me what happened. The individual that he had beat upside the head with a pistol, he didn't want that guy to come back to kill him, or he didn't want to have to kill him if he did. But yet, he was the one that was the aggressor. So I knew both parties involved. That was the work we do. That's the work we train on. That's why I said native to the community. I remember going and talkinh to the guy that had been hit upside the head bad with this pistol. I thought to myself, what am I to tell somebody who had just been hit upside the head? Most people want to get back. But all I could think about was trying to pull the positive out to him and let him see how things won, how they could have been worse, how they can get worse. I mean, not that I was condoning him getting hit, but he could have been dead. We know of other situations. They both were intoxicated with alcohol. We know a situation like that don't always just have to wind end up with someone… Hey, and thank God that I'm even here to talk to you.So, I found myself in a positive situation, just talking to both sides, letting them know that they were friends, letting them know that things could have been much worse. We have the opportunity now. No one's shot. No one's, you know... Yes, you're bruised up. It's more so your pride. Your pride is more bruised than anything. It wasn't something life-threatening where he lost an arm or couldn't hear anymore. As hard as it is, you have to believe in your superpower. So you have to be able to still find positive things and tell them. Most people say they don't want to hear that. I don't want to hear that. If you have the right superpower and you're able to do it, they will hear it. For now, your superpower will break down their power of thinking that there's nothing nobody can tell me. So all I did was take the time to point out all the positives. These two individuals are friends today. But it wasn't like an overnight thing. That's one story.Marcus offers some tips for developing positivity and love as superpowers:* He believes that training your mind and brain to seek the positive, even when you don't feel like it, is beneficial in the long run.* Finding the good can be practiced and strengthened over time, just like any skill.* Marcus gives an example of missing a flight and finding the silver linings in it rather than dwelling on the negative.* He advises practicing finding the good in all situations, no matter how small until it becomes second nature.* By doing so, one can respond positively even in more serious situations, such as losing a job, because they have built resilience through practicing on smaller issues.By following Marcus's example and advice, you can develop optimism as a superpower that will enable you to do more good in the world.Guest-Provided ProfileMarcus McAllister (he/him):CEO/ Founder, McAllister Consultancy & Training LLC.

The Omicron variant has driven a recent spike in cases of COVID-19, with case numbers in the U.S. rising to their highest level since January.

Professor of Surgery and Health Policy at John Hopkins and Fox News Medical Contributor, Dr. Marty Makary joins to discuss how the Omicron variant is impacting Americans during the holiday season. Rising crime in many cities has been a big issue all year. Politicians and media pundits spent the year arguing over what was driving the problem and how it could be resolved. There was debate over defunding the police, reforming the criminal justice system, and other strategies to make our cities safer. But not much progress was made.

Do Violence Interruption Programs Work? Some Critical Perspectives

Today on Midday, a conversation about the violence that persists on our city's streets, and what can be done about it. Last week, four children were injured when gun fire erupted in a largely blighted block of North Milton Avenue in the Broadway East neighborhood. One girl was 17, two girls were 14 year old twins. The other victim was a 12 year old boy. They were among the more than 500 people who have been injured in shootings in our city so far this year. Two hundred forty-five people have been killed in our city. Over the summer, Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott published his Comprehensive Violence Prevention Plan, the product of community meetings and an multi agency approach that treats violence as a public health issue, and seeks to engage the community in addressing it. As I mentioned at the top of the show, the Mayor is convening his Group Violence Reduction Strategy partners for the first time this afternoon.At the heart of these efforts is a push for prevention. Programs that employ Violence Interrupters — groups like Safe Streetsand Roca — will be expanded. Other, similar community based programs will be developed. Funding will be increased. What do we know about the efficacy of these programs? When a Safe Streets outreach worker intervenes in a dispute and turns people who are arguing about something away from violent resolution of the conflict, is that something that can be tracked and quantified easily? It's hard to collect data on events that haven't happened. Today on Midday, a discussion about the effectiveness of violence interruption programs. Tom is joined by three people who collect data about this and study the issue from different perspectives. Dr. Jeffrey Butts is a Research Professor and the Director of the Research and Evaluation Center at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York. He joins us on Zoom… Amos Gelb is the director of the Washington Media Institute, and the publisher of Baltimore Witnessand DC Witness, organizations that track those accused of violent crimes through the judicial system.
