14 years ago today, I watched in horror as a gunman opened fire at my alma mater, Virginia Tech.

32 people were killed and 23 were injured that day.

As a student, I'd spent countless hours in the building struck by the shooter. Here's what I've learned since.

Some of my friends had become professors at Virginia Tech, and I only learned later that they were safe.

It was an awful day that I will never forget. In the years since as Prez of @bradybuzz, I’ve become close friends w/ more survivors & their families. krisbrownbrady.medium.com/april-is-a-pai…
.@clgoddard was in French class at #VirginiaTech when he was shot 4x.

Today, those bullet fragments are still lodged in his body. He takes daily pills to prevent lead poisoning.

The toll of gun violence continues for years and lifetimes. #EndGunViolence

There is a disdain for women that is emanating from the U.S. Senate that has a pungent, rotten odor. pbs.org/newshour/polit…
There is misogyny in the U.S. Senate pure and simple, whether it’s trying to undercut the CAA Reform Act or the way that Dr. Blasey Ford is being treated. And women across the country know it when they see it.
It’s no mystery why @POTUS @SenateMajLdr & GOP @senjudiciary members don’t want Mark Judge, an admitted peeping Tom, misogynist, racist, & homophobe who pines for the days of Jim Crow & wants people w/diseases to stop trying to find cures, to testify. mediamatters.org/research/2018/…
