This Saturday, March 24, we March For Our Lives

If you stand with the students and activists of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and the 30,000 people killed by guns every year, we’re asking you to turn out for the March For Our Lives. It’s time we say #NeverAgain and end gun violence. 

There are 828 sibling marches planned in conjunction with the main march in Washington DC. This is global, and chances are there is one near you. 

We understand that not everyone can attend a march, so we want to make it easy for everyone to participate. Your voice matters, even if you can’t be there in person. That’s why we’re creating a virtual space with optional ways for everyone to participate:

Join us this Saturday as we livestream the March For Our Lives starting at 12 p.m. EST. The livestream will be at the top of every dashboard on every phone, computer, and tablet that uses Tumblr that day.

There’s going to be an @action-packed dashboard takeover with original art sourced from the Tumblr community and @creatrs.

Sign the petition and make your voice heard.

Donate to March For Our Lives, if you can.

You can show your support that day by posting your illustrations, your poems, your promises—anyway you want to express yourself. We even have stickers to add to your photos, if you want. They’re a collaboration between Tumblr Creatrs (@creatrs) and our friends at Kanvas. 

They’re in your app now. Make sure to tag your posts with #NeverAgain so everyone can see your support.

This is it, Tumblr. This is how change happens.  When people ask #WhatWillYouDo, you can point them to Saturday, March 24; To the march you participated in, the money you donated, or the messages you spread across the globe with social media.

Good luck and stay safe.

I feel for those people who lost their live and their families however, I think that parents and those who are involved with the individuals should also be held to a certain level of responsibility for those who are killing innocent people. Guns do not kill people. People do. Too strict of gun laws will inevitably create a black market for fire arms. Just like it did during the prohibition era. Not to mention excessive government control over our lives and the absolute inability to protect our own lives and that of our families!
