March For Our Lives

March For Our Lives

March for our lives is an american movement who's mission is to fight against weapons abuse, specially in schools. Since there has been a lot of school shootings through the decades in the USA, this movement wants to protect youth from this type of violence. 
This movement aims for peace in a country where there is a "gun volence epidemic", as they say.
In order to achieve their mission, "March for our lives" has established a "peace plan", in wich there are made 6 bold steps to make a Safer America.


Their many mottos include: "Never Again
                                                                 "Protect Kids,Not Guns"
                                                                                         "America Love Your Children Not Your Guns"
                                                                                             "You Can Put A Silenter On A Gun, Not On The Voice Of People"     
                                                                                         "No One Should Be Afraid To Go To School"

This picture shows a march at the National School Walkout on Wednesday, March 14, 2018
In this one, we can see a massive amount of children and teenagers doing the march, some of them having their mottos shown on their signs. I chose this one because I think that the main Slogan that we see " If Guns Don't Die Children Do", is very clear and powerful. Even if it's a very simple sentence, it leads to reflexion about governmental priorities in America.
