We’ve covered labor and sex trafficking before on Need to Know, and now we’re talking about another market-driven criminal industry that impacts our region - gun trafficking. We’ll get a breakdown of how it’s happening, its influence on crime and much more.

Also on the show, union leaders, teachers and community members are calling for social justice in school reform. We’ll learn how they’re using a documentary film to help mobilize their message.

And a new series kicks off on Need to Know - Inside the Newsroom. We’ll talk with WXXI reporters, producers and hosts and get the inside scoop on their latest stories and projects.
