New York City Stories

Every three hours a child is shot and killed on the streets of America. DCTV believes that media has partially caused the gun violence epidemic and can help solve it. We're taking to the streets of New York City to continue the war on gun violence. Even though New York City has become one of the safest cities, still hundreds are lost every year. Beyond Bullets has been working with a team of young filmmakers/reporters to produce videos from all five boroughs of New York City.
