BY ROXY SZAL | Students Demand Action invites students from campuses across the U.S. to stage walkouts to protest gun violence on Wednesday, April 5, at noon local time.
A toolkit from the group lays out how-to steps for students looking to get involved:

2. Recruit other students to join you. Contact student unions and other groups with followings.
3. Then, on Wednesday at noon: “Stop whatever you’re doing and simply walk out.”

BY PARISA SARANJ | Wearing the hijab didn’t bother me—I had the sanctuary of my home and progressive parents, and I was privileged enough to immigrate to America. I had a choice. The “I oppose the mandatory hijab” buttons are for the Iranian women who don’t have choices.
