More than 30,000 people have been shot in Chicago over the past decade. Of them, five out of six survived.

In a new series from The Trace, reporter Lakeidra Chavis investigates the impact of gun violence on survivors and communities, specifically in the Roseland neighborhood of Chicago.

We talk with Chavis and two Roseland residents about the toll of gun violence in the neighborhood.
