Daughters And Sons

Daughters and Sons - A Tribute to the Fallen. This website is dedicated to the children and their protectors killed in attacks on American schools. The song Daughters and Sons was written the evening of the Columbine High School shootings in 1999. It was the first mass shooting of students at an American school, and the harbinger of what was to come. As the parent of a daughter and son, it occurred to me that music might help to change the attitude of Americans towards guns. Music is a powerful medium, and gives us the opportunity to stop and reflect about issues that matter to us. This was why I sat down the night of Columbine and penned the words to Daughters and Sons. The song was recorded by Sonny Geraci, well known lead singer of Cleveland’s Outsiders (Time Won’t Let Me) and the hit song Precious and Few. Sonny Geraci’s rendition of this song is exactly what I envisioned when I conceived the song. Tom Mauser, the father of Daniel Mauser, one of the Columbine victims, recorded an introduction to the song. Tom Mauser’s poignant words still ring true, twenty years after they were spoken. The slayings of children in schools is America’s disgrace. The powerful gun lobby and certain U.S. senators make sure nothing will change. We are the only nation in the world plagued by this problem. The problem is escalating, not diminishing. Every day, 22 children and teens (1-17) are shot in the United States. I hope that this song can make a difference. I ask only that you listen to the message and think about what we as a society can do to stop the madness. How many more must die before we make the necessary changes to stop the killing of our children? I invite the families of the slain to post pictures of their fallen loved ones on this site and tell us about them.
