children of earth walking out

leading us to peace

~

today is a day of compassion as students, teachers and parents across the land walk out of their classrooms to say enough is enough on the one month anniversary of the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland Florida…

“Today is an unprecedented day in the history of our nation, a day when our children all across this country are exhibiting the leadership, strength, and the courage that too many of our elected leaders lack in trying to stop gun violence in America. We need to listen to them. We need to support them. And we need to join with them in demanding that government live up to its responsibility to provide for the safety and protect the lives of its citizens — in our schools, in our public places, on our streets, and throughout our communities.”

~Dennis Kucinich ~

and from the woman for whom the school was named, the school where a movement was born the woman who nods in approval…

“Be a nuisance when it counts. Do your part to inform and stimulate the public to join your action. Be depressed, discouraged, & disappointed at failure & the disheartening effects of ignorance, greed, corruption & bad politics — but never give up.”

~ Marjory Stoneman Douglas ~
