THE BIRTH OF A MOVEMENT

The March For Our Lives Movement is the product of the aftermath from the latest mass school shooting in the US in Parkland, Florida, which left 17 dead from Marjorie Stoneman High School.

The heroes of this movement are the surviving students of Marjorie Stoneman High School, who collectively and individually turned their grief, shock, anger and disgust into action and the birth of a movement.

March For Our Lives is created by, inspired by, and led by students across the country who will no longer risk their lives waiting for someone else to take action to stop the epidemic of mass school shootings that has become all too familiar. They demand social change.
