  • Summary

  • Season 2 - Confronting: Columbine

    The events of April 20th, 1999 shaped our nation and altered the American narrative. One of America’s deadliest school shootings took place in a small town in Colorado, leaving thirteen dead and another twenty-one severely injured. And it was all broadcast over national tv for the nation to see.

    The second season of Confronting takes on one of the most prolific tragedies in American history: the Columbine High School massacre. It was a devastating example of how easily a place of learning, familiarity and peace can descend into a war zone of chaos in a moment, the teenagers present that day are now adults who bear the mental and physical scars of the carnage they lived through. Amy Over, a Columbine survivor who is still living with its aftermath and raising her own children in its shadow, confronts many of the realities, questions and myths that surround the massacre to this day. Amy, through her own experience and by speaking with survivors, investigators, classmates, reporters on the scene and other important voices, brings a first-person account of the physical, emotional and spiritual journey that comes along with confronting the worst day of her life.

There has been much debate and confusion about what really happened the night of those brutal murders and for the first time Kim gets answers to questions that have been haunting her since the trial. She sits down with prosecutors, investigators, and witnesses who never got to speak and jurors who voted not guilty.

SW's 4 studt & trauma surv. need to hear this

The original narrator and Amy were clear, concise and supportive. I found the storytelling in each episode to have a clear goal in mind from the start of the episode and that goal was reached by the end of the episode. It would have been useful to have more detailed notes for each episode. For example, I know the place where Sean works is spoken about in Episode 2 but later I went back to find it the episode.notes and it's not there You also speak of the Rebel project but I feel you really need to dedicate at least a short episode telling people more about the project, discussing it's mission, what the money is used for and success stories.
