in response to the recent mass school shooting in florida high schoolers nationwide are planning on walking out on april 20th and not coming back until congress passes gun safety legislation

i’m not in high school anymore but this is an incredible idea and if you’re in high school you should definitely research this, share, and consider walking out 

after some quick googling it looks like there is also a short walkout planned for march 14, by the same people who organized the women’s march. since its a short demonstration, participating in both walkouts would be a great way to escalate tactics. the march 14 action will likely get national attention. if the indefinite walkout on april 20 gets the same level (or ideally more) participation it should make a big impact and communicate the seriousness of demonstration around this issue

There is also March For Our Lives for those near to the Washington D.C. area! Protestors will march on the capital on March 24. We are the future, and we will not tolerate these deaths any longer. Every single child who has been killed in their schools by gun violence could still be alive today if politicians had acted.

No more deaths.
