Women, the NRA, and Gun Culture by Noah Schwartz

by David Yamane | May 15, 2020 | Gun Culture, National Rifle Association, NRATV, scholarship, women

Although I was not a fan of NRATV generally, there were some programs I thought did a good job of trying to “build bridges, not walls.” Among these were shows aimed at incorporating more women in gun culture. So I was excited when I came across an academic article —...

“Live” Tweeting the Gangster Capitalism Podcast on the NRA

by admin | May 9, 2020 | Gangster Capitalism, Gun Culture, National Rifle Association, Podcast

Following is a long Twitter thread I wrote while listening/reacting to a podcast series called Gangster Capitalism which focused this season on the current crisis of the National Rifle Association (NRA). I went into it skeptically, since the NRA is often misunderstood...

by David Yamane | Feb 7, 2020 | Gun Culture, National Rifle Association, religion

In a recent appearance on Ballistic Radio with John Johnston, I spoke some about ways in which gun culture can be like a religion. Although I ultimately concluded that there are important differences between the two, I have noted the confluence of guns and religion...
