It started with 75 school walkouts 10 days ago and now 1,300 schools, city Ed Centers, local town meeting sites, etc have planned Walkouts to support the students killed in FL. I f you want to see if one is planned near you or you want to start your own here is the link with locations, etc. It will be 10:00-10:17 AM (one min for each person killed). Parents, educators, students, community leaders and local govt officials will support gun control. #ENOUGH

There also is a Nationwide March called "March For Our Lives" on Sat. March 24th, 2018 that is similar to the Women's March. There will be a large one in Wash DC and hundreds of other cities across the US. We want the GOP /NRA to stop easy access to guns and not arm teachers. Here is the link...

(52,153 posts)at the Education Center posted over a week ago. The Women's March link went down for several days they were so overwhelmed. I noticed it was back up last night and had grown as I expected. Now there are two high schools on the list too. I am going with two other former teachers and a neighbor to the Ed Center. I am a familiar face there (for good and bad reasons since I was a very loud, and visible union rep for 15 years).
Don't forget about the Nationwide marches "March For Our Lives" on March 24, 2018 which is the BIG ONE! There are marches already planned across the US and in England, Ireland, France, Belgium, Canada, etc.
Oh, I just found the one in Boston for you. It is at 12:00 at Boston Commons!!! Here is the link...

RESIST!
That is the one I am talking about. I think this is going to be huge.
Thanks again.
