We’re not going to forget and we’re not going to back down.
John, on September 4, two students and two teachers were shot and killed at Apalachee High School in Winder, Georgia: Mason Schermerhorn, 14, Christian Angulo, 14, Richard Aspinawall, 39, Christina Irimie, 53. Nine more people were injured.
Politicians have been hard at work sending their “thoughts and prayers” so they can move on. But we won’t let them. We have to hold leaders in power accountable. Let’s be clear: they have the power to change this. Gun violence is a preventable tragedy. We don’t have to live like this.
That’s why we’re co-hosting a rally alongside the Georgia Youth Justice Coalition and Change for Chee at JB Williams Park this Friday, September 20 at 12:30pm.
We’ll be standing in solidarity with the Apalachee High School community, and showing our leaders that we will not forget and move on. We will continue putting pressure on adults in power until we get the life-saving gun safety legislation we deserve.
Youth across Georgia will be standing up. We refuse to be ignored!
No matter where you are located, you can still help! If you’re able, donate anything you can now to support the students walking out in this rally.

The strength of our movement is in our numbers. This is a critical opportunity to hold leaders accountable and that’s why we need all the resources we can get.
Together we can organize and prevent another senseless tragedy like this from happening in Georgia or anywhere else in the country.
Thank you for your support,
Team March For Our Lives
