Over the past few days, amidst funeral plans, vigils and protests, we have seen the children, really young adults, of Parkland, Florida raise their voices.

They accuse the adults of having blood on their hands. With passion and strong articulate words, they speak of change they want to, better said demand to, see. They ask, can our politicians, our government leaders, look them in the eye and still not work together to find a fix to this ever-growing American tragedy?

They speak of two protests in the works – a nationwide march on March 24 and a school walk out day (on April 20, although I have heard other dates).

These are young people who deserve to be heard, and once they are heard, perhaps change will follow.

Will you march on March 24? And, will you encourage your children to stay out of school on April 20?
