About this listen

Analysis of the 1999 Columbine High School massacre, addressing both the chronology of events and its social roots. The texts detail the profiles of the attackers, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold, examining their journals, mental health issues, and the planning process of the attack. Furthermore, they explore the concept of a culture of violence in the United States, linking easy access to guns to a system that fosters fear and exclusion. The content also evaluates the police response, the impact on school safety, and how this event became a persistent touchstone in contemporary popular culture. Finally, the documents contrast international gun death statistics to question national identity and the normalization of gun use.
