Last week, news broke that Tamera Mowry and Adam Housley’s Niece Alaina was among the people killed in the Thousand Oaks Shooting, after hours of searching and hoping. Now, Alaina’s family is speaking out.
Both Tamera and Adam, along with Arik, sat down with CBS Morning News to speak on the shooting.
Lee Cowan asked “Have you been able to wrap your head around talking about her in the past tense?” This question sparked a good conversation between the group.
“Yes… We don’t believe that her voice will die,” spoke Alaina’s father Arik. “We believe that there is a message that’s out there.” Arik believes the message is “To us, it’s to be kind to one another. It’s to put down your technology, put down your phones and look at somebody and have a conversation. It’s not about gun control; this message is about doing something bigger, to be with your community, to love one another.”
Adam added, “To get to the point where we can have a conversation about anything political, it has to start here [points to heart]. It has to start with the soul, because we’ve lost that.”
“But I think it starts there,” said Tamera chimed in. “You start with imagining, ‘Wait a minute, what if that was my child, or my niece, or my cousin?’ It will get you in a place of just having some sort of human decency.”
