👏Congraulations to @enoughplaysproject and the 6 young voices chosen to have their short plays confronting gun violence performed across the country. These plays were selected out of 244 submissions from 36 states and will receive their premiere at @kennedycenter on Nov 6, 2023!

This #TeacherAppreciationWeek, I'm joining @bradybuzz, @TeachersUnify, @AFTunion, and @NEAToday in honoring educators by working toward the best gift of all — schools and communities free from gun violence!

GO @AalayahEastmond !! Introducing our @bradybuzz Advocate Action Award Winner @MaxwellFrostFL !!

More children and teens were killed by guns in 2021 than in any year since 1999, the first year the CDC began tracking the data. Young people are on the frontlines of gun violence in America. We feel our politician's inaction in the deaths of our friends and family every day.

HE IS NON VIOLENT

My friend and fellow gun violence prevention advocate @manueloliver00, whose son Joaquin was murdered in the Parkland School Shooting, was pinned to the ground and arrested AFTER leaving a hearing this morning on the ATF. His arrest is excessive and uncalled for #HeIsNonviolent

Committing the crimes you say that others are committing to prove that those crimes happen

At @team_enough, we believe that we will be the generation to end gun violence. It’s not just a slogan but a mission, and we need to be sharp in our analysis and truthful, even when it’s difficult.

5 years. Half a decade. 1825 days. A lot can happen in that time. I was a college freshman with a baby face dreaming of becoming a software engineer. But on Valentine’s Day, 5 years ago, a tragedy occurred. It was my sister Carmen’s last day on earth, and she didn’t know it. 🧵

As we observe #GVSurvivors week, we must center those who are disproportionately impacted by gun violence, like: 🔺#LGBTQ people 🔺Indigenous communities 🔺Black and Latinx communities To #EndGunViolence, we must find unique solutions for each community facing this epidemic.
