This is a little bit of a cheat because our five favorite posts for change makers and communicators were actually published over a six-week period rather than a month.

An interactive map of shootings in America. "Aurora, Newtown, San Bernardino seem far away? Gun violence hits closer to home than you might think. Slate teamed up with The Trace, a site dedicated to gun news, to show just how close.

These same values lie at the heart of mainstream science, too.”
