This episode contains descriptions of violence.
At the end of every year, The New York Times Magazine devotes an issue to remembering those who have died in the past year.
This year’s focus is gun violence, which is now the leading cause of death for American children, and the short lives that ended far too soon because of it.
Today, we remember three of them: Lavonte’e Williams, Elijah Gomez and Shiway Barry.
