Saw a handful of plays last night, written by American teens, about gun violence.
These same plays were performed in 31 states on the same day. @enoughplays
Major themes: they feel targeted, despairing, and unheard by law enforcement and politicians.

Marcus Spears, with some very pointed remarks about the shooting during the Kanas City Chiefs Super Bowl parade:
"When I first heard it, you know what I thought, unfortunately, is this is who we are. This is who we are. So, now the ever-revolving cycle is going to start. The news outlets will talk about gun control. They'll have politicians from either side to talk about what needs to be done....And then we'll have a 'prayer's up,' I'm sure that's what's happening right now..."

We remember the 17 lives cut short 6 years ago by a senseless act of violence, the wounds - both visible and invisible - that continue to heal, & the courage of many to honor their loved ones and all impacted by turning their pain into purpose through powerful action. #msdstrong
