#MarchForOurLives, a revolution against gun violence in the United States has taken to the streets in the cities across the Country and around the World. At the forefront in Washington DC, many of the Mary Stoneman Douglas survivors are once again leading the charge for change in the Nations gun laws and further put pressure on lawmakers to undertake these causes and help bring about that change.
