BREAKDOWN ASL PODCAST | EP. 1: 'Did We Really Survive This?'
Clip: Season 2024 Episode 16 | 36m 36s
The mass shooting in Lewiston, Maine, on Oct. 25, 2023, was the year's deadliest.
What does it mean to be a victim? Or a survivor? In a few brief moments in October 2023, 18 lives were lost in Lewiston — and Maine was changed. In Episode 1 of the ASL-interpreted video of the "Breakdown" podcast, we meet several people who are trying to recover — from the trauma of losing a loved one, from being critically injured and from being psychologically wounded.
