Behind every monster, there is a story. What causes a teenager to shoot up a school? What pre-empts the shocking violence and disregard for human life that has become so tragically common in America? Are "school shooters" born... or created ? While these individuals are reported on as "monsters" in the media, let us always remember: they were human first. RUN HIDE FIGHT is a jarring exploration of the factors at-play in the psyche of violent young Americans, packaged in a fictional short story. Award-winning author Trisha Fenimore hopes the piece will spark a wider conversation on the varied levels and ways we dehumanize one another in our society.
