Children Rising Up: Marching for Gun Control in the USA

Children Rising Up: Marching for Gun Control in the USA

The Parkland students continue the history of children activists for justice issues.  After so many disappointments in our own lives, we are quick to say, ‘Let me give you the reasons why that won’t work …..’  Children have fresh, clear eyes.  They are not willing to listen to what won’t work. They are a new generation, and they know that THEIR generation has to make a difference.

They already have a better record than their elders.  They pulled off a near-miracle by persuading their state legislature to pass legislation to limit access to guns.  In some ways, it’s a small step.  And most people like parts but hate others.  It came out of compromise.  Yet high school students still in shock and deeply grieving pulled this off in less than a month after being targets of shooter.
