Parkland Shooting

On Feb. 14, 17 people were killed by Nikolas Cruz, a 19-year-old former student at the said high school. Cruz was charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder as well as 17 counts of attempted murder for the people he injured.

Following the mass shooting, the students at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School urged the government to issue stricter gun control rules. Less than a month after the shooting, Governor Rick Scott signed a bill that now set the minimum age for buying rifles in Florida to 21.

March For Our Lives Success

In March, the student survivors also organized the March for Our Lives event in Washington D.C, which served as a nationwide protest against gun violence and in support of the #NeverAgain movement. A slew of celebrities and singers took part in the protest, namely, Miley Cyrus, Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, and more.

"It's amazing the universal support we've gotten. I mean, it's proof that this isn't red and blue. This isn't generation versus generation. This is the 97 percent of people who believe that we need to take steps here together," said Cameron Kasky, one of the students.
