Instead of waiting for their local legislators to make changes, students in Indianapolis brought their concerns straight to the Indiana Statehouse. On Friday, they joined hundreds of students across the country for the National School Walkout, all to protest gun violence and demand action from lawmakers.
“So my brothers can grow up in a world without worrying about gun violence,” Jaidyn, a student at Shortridge High School, explained. “And if they ever choose to have kids, or if I choose to have kids, that they’re entering a world where they shouldn’t be scared for their life just simply going to school and getting an education.”
Hundreds of students made their voices heard, all asking lawmakers for one thing.
Kids over guns…
