Walk Out, Don't Sit Out


We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal.
Are we, the students, not equal? Do we, the students, not deserve safety?
We are the future. We are your future. All men are created equal. We,
the students, are created equal. We the people. Who are the people?
Are we not people? Do we not deserve a say? If you have ever been
told that children must be seen and not heard, this is your chance.
There is no legal age for having a voice. Rise up. Enough is enough.
When it is our lives on the line, we will not hold our tongues, we will
not sit quietly and let the
adults handle it. When the
adults do nothing and it is
us being killed, we will make
damn sure those who want
our generation to be so silent
that you can hear a pin drop
hear us. Rattle the cage. Make
noise. We will not be sil
-enced. We will not sit on
the wall dangling our feet.
We don’t need a megaph
-one. The blood of innocent
children amplifies our words.
