This is what the school walkouts looked like 

CNN | March 14, 2018

Across the United States, many students walked out of school Wednesday to say enough is enough with regards to gun violence.

The national school walkout started at 10 a.m. in each time zone and was scheduled to last for at least 17 minutes — one minute for each person killed in a school shooting that happened exactly one month ago in Parkland, Florida.

More than 2,500 walkouts were planned across the country, according to Empower, the youth branch of the Women’s March that has been organizing the event.

Participants called for stricter gun laws as they also remembered the people who lost their lives in Parkland.

Many schools accommodated the demonstration. Others didn’t allow it, encouraging students to express themselves in ways other than walking out.

Harry Styles Signed March For Our Lives Petition & Says 'You Should Too'

Harry Styles joins growing list of celebrity and student supporters of tighter gun control.

By the way, when you search for “March for Our Lives petition” this is the top result. His support matters!

[becauseweknewthem]

The School Walkouts today saw everything from kids showing up on a snow day, to whole schools walking out, to single students that stood up alone to join the national protest.

Some students were fully supported, some were mocked, some were threatened.

They’re standing up anyway.

It’s inspiring, and when the March For Our Lives happens on the 24th, we can all stand up to support them.
