'I'm unbearably hurt': Kanesha Gaines was shot to death on Sunday morning after her 18-year-old brother, Keshaun, was gunned down in 2019.
A North Lawndale shooting in Chicago killed Kanesha Gaines and injured eight other women near near 15th and Keeler.Natasha Graham is struggling with her painful reality: she's lost another one of her children to gun violence.Kanesha Gaines, 21, was killed and eight other women were wounded when someone opened fire in the city's North Lawndale neighborhood early Sunday morning.The shooting happened in the 1500 block of South Keeler Avenue just before 1 a.m.
"With all these women being shot, something has to be personal. Why would you just unload on a yard, a house full of women that was here on the outside celebrating someone's birthday," said community activist Andrew Holmes. "With what you've got left, you're just trying to hold onto it as close as you can. Don't let your kids outside," Graham said.
Amid the grief, there's also a mother's anger over all the guns on the streets and those willing to use them, as well as plea for justice and the violence to stop.
