Miami Gun Violence anthology
The anthology “More Than What Happened: The Aftermath of Gun Violence in Miami” is a memorial in remembrance of children, teens and adults who were killed by gun violence in and around Miami-Dade. You will read their names in prose, poems, and essays submitted by loved ones who can now only hold on tightly to their memories.
This book bears witness to survival. What it means to survive being shot. What it means to survive a loved one taken from this world far too soon. What it means to survive a violent partner. What it means to survive in neighborhoods where shootings are far too common. What it means to survive at school and what it means to survive the police.
“More Than What Happened: The Aftermath of Gun Violence in Miami” is an archive and memory book penned largely by communities of color in Miami-Dade.
Edited by Nadege Green, founder of Black Miami-Dade. Purchase the book here.
