The Lewiston shooting was the deadliest mass shooting of 2023 – and it’s believed to be the deadliest ever mass shooting of deaf people in the U.S.
We’re publishing American Sign Language (ASL)-interpreted videos for each episode of our podcast “Breakdown: Turning Anguish Into Action,” a six-part series in collaboration with Maine Public Radio and the Portland Press Herald.
For more than a year following the shooting, our newsrooms were on the ground investigating, combing through documents, listening to testimony and interviewing dozens of people.
Over six episodes, Breakdown explores the missed opportunities to prevent the shooting, the role of guns and hunting in Maine’s politics, and the aftermath for shooting survivors and their families – including communication barriers for those who were deaf and hard of hearing.
Publishing the innovative ASL-interpreted videos is part of an effort by FRONTLINE, Maine Public Radio and the Portland Press Herald to make this award-winning investigative podcast accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing community.
