These Students Protesting Gun Violence Are Incredibly Inspiring
Students from different schools all across the country staged a peaceful walkout today to protest gun violence and demand that national lawmakers enact change when it comes to gun control.
This inspiring youth activism is in response to February’s mass shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida, which took 17 lives.
Take a look at some of the powerful ways students in America are letting people know that #EnoughIsEnough:
