The episode explores the aftermath of a school shooting in Minneapolis and its impact on families and the community.

After a gunman killed two children and injured 27 others at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis at the start of the school year, parents, teachers, and students have been left to pick up the pieces. It is a process that might feel familiar to countless other communities who have encountered school shootings, but what does it look like for these families? How do you live the rest of your life after everything changes? CNN went to Minneapolis to find out. For more: The shooting finally stopped. Then came everything else. --- Guest: Michelle Krupa, CNN Editor Host: David Rind Producer: Paola Ortiz Showrunner: Felicia Patinkin Editorial Support: Emily Smith Photo: Liam James Doyle for CNN Learn more about your ad choices.
