Welcome to a very special Ed’s (Not) Dead short, where we will be focusing on the March 14th “MARCH FOR OUR LIVES” protest. We felt that it was an important enough event and potentially a watershed moment in not only addressing school shootings but also in student activism, that we wanted to hear what participants had to say about it, without adult commentary or interference. We were fortunate enough to have a correspondent on the National Mall who asked students “why are you here” and “what do you hope to achieve.” These responses are, for the most part, unedited and reflect not only the student’s individual viewpoint but the essence of the event as a whole. We hope you enjoy.
