It took three years to recover from our injuries, and a couple more to deal with the aftereffects of trauma. When I finally returned to the world-as father and husband, friend and brother, writer and citizen-it became clear that our society was in its own traumatized state-reeling from the string of police shootings of unarmed African Americans, stunned by yet one more mass shooting.
