Over the past few months, there's been an increase in homicides in some of the nation’s largest cities, with Boston seeing a nearly 40 percent increase in murders.

Brown Peace Institute, named after her son, who was shot and killed the year prior.
Jim Braude was joined by Tina Chéry to hear about the organization’s latest work, including its new partnership with the Anti-Violence Partnership of Philadelphia.
