In this Jan. 29, 2014 photo, the sun sets behind a shelter at the Vivian Gordon Harsh Park in Chicago where 15-year-old Hadiya Pendleton was shot and killed one year ago during a gang dispute she had nothing to do with about a mile from President Barack Obama’s Chicago home. Since her death one year ago, the number of homicides and other violent crimes that turned Chicago into a national symbol of gun violence have fallen sharply. Nobody believes the problem has been solved. Yet Hadiya  great uncle, Nathaniel Pendleton, said he feels more hopeful. (AP Photo/Charles Rex Arbogast)
