00:00:40,171 except for like David, 11 00:00:40,206 --> 00:00:42,503 but that's 'cause I've had a class with him 12 00:00:42,538 --> 00:00:43,801 for an entire year. 13 00:00:45,838 --> 00:00:48,344 It's hard to trust anyone these days, 14 00:00:48,379 --> 00:00:50,192 considering a kid that I barely fucking know, 15 00:00:50,216 --> 00:00:51,216 tried to kill me, so. 16 00:00:56,618 --> 00:00:57,618 Okay. 17 00:01:00,853 --> 00:01:02,259 - Thank you. 18 00:01:02,294 --> 00:01:03,689 - Hello, hi, welcome. 19 00:01:05,198 --> 00:01:06,098 There's a lot of you. 20 00:01:06,133 -->

24 00:01:16,143 --> 00:01:17,736 doing normal ass things. 25 00:01:23,777 --> 00:01:26,745 At first, I didn't want to acknowledge 26 00:01:26,780 --> 00:01:27,780 what had happened to me. 27 00:01:37,263 --> 00:01:39,241 Well, there was this part of me that kept wanting 28 00:01:39,265 --> 00:01:41,166 to say it over and over and over and again. 29 00:01:43,302 --> 00:01:46,369 But not because I wanted it to feel real, 30 00:01:46,404 --> 00:01:48,701 but because I wanted to feel less real, 31 00:01:50,804 --> 00:01:54,377 to a point where it becomes a story opposed to my life. 32 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,917 I remember literally everything that happened to a T. 33 00:02:11,891 --> 00:02:13,407 I remember things that I was saying, 34 00:02:13,431 --> 00:02:15,464 I remember things that I was thinking. 35 00:02:26,378 --> 00:02:27,509 I was thinking about Nick, 36 00:02:28,842 --> 00:02:30,677 and I was thinking about how he was dead. 37 00:02:31,779 --> 00:02:33,859 And I was thinking about how he didn't have a pulse. 38 00:02:37,719 --> 00:02:39,785 I was thinking about, how we were gonna get out, 39 00:02:41,855 --> 00:02:43,261 if he was gonna come back, 40 00:02:46,332 --> 00:02:47,364 was I going to die? 41 00:02:49,929 --> 00:02:51,170 Was I gonna bleed out? 42 00:02:54,472 --> 00:02:55,504 Where did I get shot? 43 00:02:58,003 --> 00:02:59,805 Why am I bleeding from my face? 44 00:03:03,415 --> 00:03:04,711 Why can't I see out my eyes? 45 00:03:08,618 --> 00:03:10,552 And then I was sitting in my hospital bed, 46 00:03:12,391 --> 00:03:13,852 and I saw Emma on TV. 47 00:03:15,988 --> 00:03:17,328 - I know this looks like a lot, 48 00:03:17,363 --> 00:03:19,363 but these are my AP Gov. notes. 49 00:03:21,730 --> 00:03:23,840 The people in the government who were voted into power 50 00:03:23,864 --> 00:03:25,501 are lying to us. 51 00:03:25,536 --> 00:03:27,569 And us kids seem to be the only ones who notice 52 00:03:27,604 --> 00:03:29,604 and are prepared to BS. 53 00:03:31,377 --> 00:03:32,882 - It was a moment of just like confusion, 54 00:03:32,906 --> 00:03:33,982 and then a moment of complete clarity. 55 00:03:34,006 --> 00:03:36,446 - Funded by the NRA telling us 56 00:03:36,481 --> 00:03:38,019 nothing could have ever been done to prevent this. 57 00:03:38,043 --> 00:03:39,614 We call BS! 58 00:03:41,519 --> 00:03:42,749 They say that tougher gun laws 59 00:03:42,784 --> 00:03:44,685 do not decrease gun violence. 60 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,324 We call BS! 61 00:03:46,359 --> 00:03:48,425 - The tears, the runniness in her eyes, 62 00:03:48,460 --> 00:03:50,658 the pinkness in her face. 63 00:03:50,693 --> 00:03:52,429 I could feel her through the screen. 64 00:03:52,464 --> 00:03:54,992 - We call BS! - BS! 65 00:03:55,027 --> 00:03:56,829 - In that moment, it felt like a switch 66 00:03:56,864 --> 00:03:59,535 was turned into her and it was electrifying. 67 00:03:59,570 --> 00:04:01,669 She was on fire. 68 00:04:01,704 --> 00:04:03,902 - That us kids don't know what we're talking about, 69 00:04:03,937 --> 00:04:05,904 that we're too young to understand 70 00:04:05,939 --> 00:04:08,412 how the government works. 71 00:04:08,447 --> 00:04:09,809 We call BS! 72 00:04:09,844 --> 00:04:11,580 - BS! 73 00:04:11,615 --> 00:04:12,975 - If you agree, register to vote, 74 00:04:13,419 -->

00:04:19,084 --> 00:04:21,854 and thinking like, wow, I can do that. 78 00:05:26,789 --> 00:05:27,821 - I'm making meat sauce. 79 00:05:27,856 --> 00:05:29,625 I need mozzarella cheese. 80 00:05:29,660 --> 00:05:32,397 Is there mozzarella cheese in here? 81 00:05:33,433 --> 00:05:34,433 Yeah. 82 00:05:36,931 --> 00:05:40,438 I like to put too many onions in my stuff 83 00:05:40,473 --> 00:05:42,473 because onions are awesome. 84 00:05:42,508 --> 00:05:45,740 And I mean, this is my main source of vegetables. 85 00:05:51,682 --> 00:05:54,111 This is my post-apocalyptic cooking show. 86 00:05:54,146 --> 00:05:55,146 Welcome. 87 00:05:56,753 --> 00:05:58,951 Oh, I burped in my mask. 88 00:05:58,986 --> 00:05:59,787 I'm so fucking dumb. 89 00:05:59,822 --> 00:06:01,987 I just burped in my mask. 90 00:06:03,529 --> 00:06:06,156 I just don't think we're moving fast enough. 91 00:06:06,191 --> 00:06:07,960 And I know exactly what we need to do 92 00:06:07,995 --> 00:06:10,600 in order to fix the problem that we have, 93 00:06:11,702 --> 00:06:12,943 and the people in power are not doing that 94 00:06:12,967 --> 00:06:13,633 because they're owned. 95 00:06:13,668 --> 00:06:15,737 And that's really frustrating. 96 00:06:19,809 --> 00:06:21,479 - Before the shooting at our high school, 97 00:06:21,514 --> 00:06:23,943 on February 14th, 2018, 98 00:06:23,978 --> 00:06:26,847 we were just normal American high school students. 99 00:06:26,882 --> 00:06:29,520 In just six minutes and 20 second, however, 100 00:06:29,555 --> 00:06:31,786 our town became the epicenter of the world 101 00:06:31,821 --> 00:06:35,922 as 17 hearts stopped beating one by one. 102 00:06:36,892 --> 00:06:39,156 Another 17 people were injured 103 00:06:39,191 --> 00:06:41,026 with physical wounds that might heal, 104 00:06:41,061 --> 00:06:42,863 but with emotional wounds that would never. 105 00:06:46,968 --> 00:06:48,902 - That building right there, 106 00:06:48,937 --> 00:06:50,574 that's Marjory Stoneman Douglas. 107 00:06:53,744 --> 00:06:57,042 I don't want to hear anybody else cry like my sister did 108 00:06:57,077 --> 00:06:59,176 when she had lost four friends on the same day. 109 00:07:01,048 --> 00:07:03,950 It physically hurt me to hear her cry like that. 110 00:07:03,985 --> 00:07:05,182 - What do we want? - Now! 111 00:07:05,217 --> 00:07:06,821 - When do we want it? - Change! 112 00:07:06,856 --> 00:07:08,020 - What do we want? - Now! 113 00:07:08,055 --> 00:07:09,857 - When do we want it? - Change! 114 00:07:09,892 --> 00:07:10,858 - When do we want it? - Now! 115 00:07:10,893 --> 00:07:12,959 - Parkland was chaos. 116 00:07:12,994 --> 00:07:16,897 Children in pain, survivors guilt, trauma. 117 00:07:16,932 --> 00:07:20,571 - How many have you lost someone in this? 118 00:07:20,606 --> 00:07:21,846 And how do you feel about that? 119 00:07:24,005 --> 00:07:25,939 You can be mad, you can be sad. 120 00:07:25,974 --> 00:07:27,776 You can feel heartbroken. 121 00:07:27,811 --> 00:07:30,075 - An entire community in disarray, 122 00:07:30,110 --> 00:07:32,847 just as the media shows up in its normal droves. 123 00:07:34,279 --> 00:07:36,257 A collection of students meeting up in a household 124 00:07:36,281 --> 00:07:38,017 that does not have any parents in it. 125 00:07:39,757 --> 00:07:43,660 - It all started in this little town, in this little house 126 00:07:43,695 --> 00:07:45,893 with a group of 20 kids. 127 00:07:45,928 --> 00:07:48,599 Most of whom were not invited, most of whom just showed up. 128 00:07:50,669 --> 00:07:52,504 Everything made so little sense. 129 00:07:52,539 --> 00:07:54,033 - I'm halfway through today. 130 00:07:54,068 --> 00:07:55,144 - I'd sleep for three hours, 131 00:07:55,168 --> 00:07:56,750 and I would say, please let me wake up. 132 00:07:56,774 --> 00:07:58,294 This is all some horrible nightmare. 133 00:08:00,008 --> 00:08:01,810 - The first night I went to Cameron's house, 134 00:08:01,845 --> 00:08:05,011 I drove away with my dad yelling at me to come back inside. 135 00:08:06,146 --> 00:08:09,081 He was, before the shooting, like a Trump supporter 136 00:08:09,116 --> 00:08:12,557 and very against my rhetoric. 137 00:08:12,592 --> 00:08:15,923 He didn't understand that my grieving process 138 00:08:15,958 --> 00:08:17,254 was to do something. 139 00:08:19,225 --> 00:08:20,565 - No guns, that's what we want. 140 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,061 No guns, that's what we want. 141 00:08:22,096 --> 00:08:23,260 No guns, that's what we want. 142 00:08:23,295 --> 00:08:25,064 No guns, that's what we want. 143 00:08:25,099 --> 00:08:26,670 No guns, that's what we want. 144 00:08:26,705 --> 00:08:27,537 - One of the students wounded in the massacre 145 00:08:27,573 --> 00:08:30,135 has just been released from a hospital. 146 00:08:30,170 --> 00:08:34,007 18 year old, Senior Sam Fuentes was shot in both legs 147 00:08:34,042 --> 00:08:36,548 Shrapnel hit her in the face. 148 00:08:36,583 --> 00:08:38,847 She says she saw her classmates on either side of her. 149 00:08:39,179 --> 00:08:41,982 - Two kids were killed and four more wounded 150 00:08:42,017 --> 00:08:43,313 when the shooter opened fire 151 00:08:43,348 --> 00:08:44,985 into that Holocaust classroom. 152 00:08:45,020 --> 00:08:47,086 - Holocaust class that became a target 153 00:08:47,121 --> 00:08:48,835 during the shooting on February, the 14th. 154 00:08:48,859 --> 00:08:52,124 - Nicholas Dworet, a senior, a star swimmer 155 00:08:52,159 --> 00:08:54,291 who had signed a scholarship letter of intent 156 00:08:54,326 --> 00:08:56,260 to swim in college, died in the rampage. 157 00:09:04,908 --> 00:09:07,612 - I was with Nick just moments before he passed away. 158 00:09:09,176 --> 00:09:10,307 Only inches apart. 159 00:09:14,016 --> 00:09:16,016 I met him my freshman year. 160 00:09:17,855 --> 00:09:19,657 And we read The Lord of the Flies together 161 00:09:19,692 --> 00:09:22,187 and read Romeo and Juliet. 162 00:09:24,356 --> 00:09:28,765 I suppose, when someone passes away in front of you, 163 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,735 all you could think is every moment 164 00:09:31,770 --> 00:09:33,902 you've shared with that person, 165 00:09:33,937 --> 00:09:37,202 every detail imprinted in your mind. 166 00:09:40,306 --> 00:09:42,845 Just a lot of anger and guilt. 167 00:09:44,915 --> 00:09:47,146 And it's like, is there something that I can do 168 00:09:47,181 --> 00:09:49,313 to pause that for just a moment? 169 00:09:56,762 --> 00:09:58,025 - That's fucking great. 170 00:09:58,060 --> 00:09:59,598 - Yeah, but it's not even, yeah. 171 00:10:00,425 --> 00:10:02,128 Okay. 172 00:10:02,163 --> 00:10:06,330 - We were so deeply focused on preventing it from happening. 173 00:10:06,365 --> 00:10:09,102 Connecting the trauma to the politics, 174 00:10:09,137 --> 00:10:12,941 and connecting the trauma to the problem, 175 00:10:12,976 --> 00:10:14,173 the systemic problem. 176 00:10:14,208 --> 00:10:16,109 - The people who actually have the opportunity 177 00:10:16,144 --> 00:10:18,408 to make the change are doing, 178 00:10:18,443 --> 00:10:20,410 excuse my language, jack. 179 00:10:20,445 --> 00:10:23,314 - We are creating a badge of shame for any politicians 180 00:10:23,349 --> 00:10:25,382 who are accepting money from the NRA. 181 00:10:25,417 --> 00:10:26,955 - We just learned about the NRA 182 00:10:26,990 --> 00:10:29,188 the week before the shooting in our AP Gov class, 183 00:10:31,192 --> 00:10:33,005 I was like, there's a universe where this doesn't happen 184 00:10:33,029 --> 00:10:36,899 because there are gun laws and stuff in place. 185 00:10:38,166 --> 00:10:39,275 - It's the hundreds of millions of dollars 186 00:10:39,299 --> 00:10:40,771 that the NRA pours into elections, 187 00:10:40,806 --> 00:10:44,203 and they don't care who dies as a result. 188 00:10:44,238 --> 00:10:47,712 We've seen a government shutdown, we've seen tax reform, 189 00:10:47,747 --> 00:10:50,011 but nothing to save our children's lives. 190 00:10:50,046 --> 00:10:51,144 Are you kidding me? 191 00:10:51,179 --> 00:10:52,420 - We know how this is gonna end up. 192 00:10:52,444 --> 00:10:53,828 We know that the politicians is gonna say 193 00:10:53,852 --> 00:10:54,752 thoughts and prayers, 194 00:10:54,787 --> 00:10:55,797 they're gonna say those words 195 00:10:55,821 --> 00:10:56,754 and that's all they're gonna do. 196 00:10:56,789 --> 00:10:58,118 - Thoughts and prayers. 197 00:10:58,153 --> 00:10:59,317 - Thoughts and prayers. 198 00:10:59,352 --> 00:11:00,362 - In our prayers. - In our prayers. 199 00:11:00,386 --> 00:11:01,397 - We don't need politics right now. 200 00:11:01,421 --> 00:11:02,386 - This is not the time to jump to some conclusion. 201 00:11:02,422 --> 00:11:05,290 - All four bills on gun control failed. 202 00:11:05,325 --> 00:11:07,864 - We said, it's always the same shit. 203 00:11:12,871 --> 00:11:15,267 So what if we got to change it this time? 204 00:11:15,302 --> 00:11:16,840 - Go away, NRA. 205 00:11:16,875 --> 00:11:17,973 Go away, NRA. 206 00:11:18,008 --> 00:11:19,711 - So when people hear Parkland, Florida, 207 00:11:19,746 --> 00:11:21,174 they don't think that's that city 208 00:11:21,209 --> 00:11:22,912 where the school got shot up, 209 00:11:22,947 --> 00:11:25,189 and then everybody cried and hid in their houses for a year. 210 00:11:25,213 --> 00:11:26,311 - Go away, NRA. 211 00:11:26,346 --> 00:11:27,917 - People think Parkland, Florida, 212 00:11:27,952 --> 00:11:30,018 that's the city where the school got shot up. 213 00:11:30,053 --> 00:11:34,990 And then for lack of more eloquent words, shit went down. 214 00:11:35,025 --> 00:11:37,091 - Students are headed to their State's Capitol 215 00:11:37,126 --> 00:11:38,796 to rally for gun control. 216 00:11:38,831 --> 00:11:40,765 - State lawmakers and the governor. 217 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,734 - A thousand protestors converged 218 00:11:42,769 --> 00:11:45,033 outside the Capitol, raising the volume. 219 00:11:45,068 --> 00:11:46,309 - The fact that day I was on the phone 220 00:11:46,333 --> 00:11:47,464 with the congresswoman, 221 00:11:47,499 --> 00:11:50,874 12 hours after the shooting is crazy. 222 00:11:50,909 --> 00:11:52,249 We're gonna be in announcing who's on what bus. 223 00:11:52,273 --> 00:11:54,339 - This is not a position we ever expected 224 00:11:54,374 --> 00:11:55,374 ourselves to be in. 225 00:11:57,245 --> 00:11:59,509 It was just throwing people at news organizations. 226 00:11:59,544 --> 00:12:02,314 Emma and Jackie, you go that way. 227 00:12:02,349 --> 00:12:03,755 And then it was like that. 228 00:12:05,121 --> 00:12:06,857 We were being passed around like an STD 229 00:12:06,892 --> 00:12:08,188 at Florida State University. 230 00:12:08,223 --> 00:12:09,398 - Cameron Kasky. - Cameron Kasky. 231 00:12:09,422 --> 00:12:11,026 - Emma Gonzalez, David Hogg. 232 00:12:11,061 --> 00:12:12,137 - David Hogg already got tens of thousands 233 00:12:12,161 --> 00:12:13,798 of followers online. 234 00:12:13,833 --> 00:12:16,163 - And you become a part of the media. 235 00:12:16,198 --> 00:12:18,968 - Emma Gonzalez. - Brave, 18 year old, 236 00:12:19,003 --> 00:12:20,079 Emma Gonzalez. - And she came out 237 00:12:20,103 --> 00:12:22,873 and she is just a total superstar. 238 00:12:22,908 --> 00:12:25,172 - All these photographers screaming at us, 239 00:12:25,207 --> 00:12:26,173 "why aren't you smiling? 240 00:12:26,208 --> 00:12:27,208 Why aren't you smiling?" 241 00:12:28,914 --> 00:12:32,146 You can feel them wanting something from you. 242 00:12:32,181 --> 00:12:33,543 Like with 60 minutes, 243 00:12:33,578 --> 00:12:35,886 I had a five fucking hour interview with them, 244 00:12:35,921 --> 00:12:37,855 and I was saying really smart stuff 245 00:12:37,890 --> 00:12:39,296 and all they took was when I was like, 246 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,254 "I don't know if I deserve to go to college." 247 00:12:43,357 --> 00:12:45,291 I had so many good arguments. 248 00:12:47,999 --> 00:12:49,537 - We fucked up interacting with them like that, 249 00:12:49,561 --> 00:12:51,201 not understanding where we could say no 250 00:12:51,233 --> 00:12:53,398 and where we could say yes. 251 00:12:53,433 --> 00:12:55,532 CNN, they were like, "Okay, 252 00:12:55,567 --> 00:12:58,205 "give us like a bunch of questions that you wanna ask." 253 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,109 - We're here tonight to facilitate your desire 254 00:13:01,144 --> 00:13:03,441 to speak directly to your leaders. 255 00:13:03,476 --> 00:13:05,289 - What they were actually doing was picking the questions 256 00:13:05,313 --> 00:13:07,280 that were the least confrontational. 257 00:13:07,315 --> 00:13:09,447 And Cameron went off script. 258 00:13:09,482 --> 00:13:11,548 - Senator Rubio, can you tell me right now 259 00:13:11,583 --> 00:13:13,484 that you will not accept a single donation 260 00:13:13,519 --> 00:13:14,599 from the NRA in the future? 261 00:13:17,622 --> 00:13:19,556 - That was beyond crazy. 262 00:13:22,165 --> 00:13:24,594 - A matter of fact, I bet we can get people in here 263 00:13:24,629 --> 00:13:27,333 to give you exactly as much money as the NRA would have. 264 00:13:27,368 --> 00:13:28,433 - But it's not, 265 00:13:29,236 --> 00:13:31,007 And you're right. - Can you stand? 266 00:13:31,042 --> 00:13:31,708 - There was this whole narrative for awhile 267 00:13:31,743 --> 00:13:33,273 but this was a generational war. 268 00:13:33,308 --> 00:13:36,342 - Why do we have to be the ones to do this? 269 00:13:36,377 --> 00:13:38,410 - And I was part of that. 270 00:13:38,445 --> 00:13:39,895 I was going out there and being like, 271 00:13:39,919 --> 00:13:41,611 "Yeah, hey people over the age of 20, 272 00:13:41,646 --> 00:13:44,251 "this is all your fault, and you guys suck. 273 00:13:44,286 --> 00:13:47,089 "So step back, let us take control. 274 00:13:47,124 --> 00:13:48,354 "We got this one." 275 00:13:53,999 --> 00:13:56,428 - You know, before all this, I got mad at politics. 276 00:13:56,463 --> 00:13:59,904 But the one thing that always played my mind was, 277 00:13:59,939 --> 00:14:02,104 I'm just an angry freaking kid. 278 00:14:02,139 --> 00:14:05,635 Well, that's wrong. 279 00:14:07,441 --> 00:14:09,144 I wasn't gonna do my midterms 280 00:14:09,179 --> 00:14:10,387 because I thought they were stupid. 281 00:14:10,411 --> 00:14:12,180 But that's how we allow horrible things 282 00:14:12,215 --> 00:14:14,248 like our current situation to happen. 283 00:14:14,283 --> 00:14:18,153 We are smart, we are woke, and we are awesome. 284 00:14:18,188 --> 00:14:20,925 So let's create a new generation of elected officials 285 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:23,323 that are smart, and woke, and awesome. 286 00:14:27,593 --> 00:14:30,165 - I wanna say to all of you in this room, 287 00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,399 when I came back from Vietnam, I was totally disillusioned. 288 00:14:33,434 --> 00:14:35,335 We threw our medals in the Capitol steps. 289 00:14:35,370 --> 00:14:38,140 You could not see the marble of the steps 290 00:14:38,175 --> 00:14:40,010 for all the medals. 291 00:14:40,045 --> 00:14:43,508 Quadriplegics, quadruple amputees, 292 00:14:43,543 --> 00:14:45,675 throwing their purple hearts on the steps. 293 00:14:45,710 --> 00:14:47,479 It did make a difference. 294 00:14:47,514 --> 00:14:48,546 Please keep it up. 295 00:14:48,581 --> 00:14:50,185 Do not dismay. 296 00:14:50,220 --> 00:14:51,351 It will happen for you. 297 00:15:04,102 --> 00:15:06,333 - The reason why people fought so hard 298 00:15:06,368 --> 00:15:10,007 to end the war in Vietnam was because they saw their friends 299 00:15:10,042 --> 00:15:12,405 coming back in caskets, dead. 300 00:15:32,031 --> 00:15:33,261 - The nationwide walkout 301 00:15:33,296 --> 00:15:35,296 inspired by Parkland, Florida, 302 00:15:35,331 --> 00:15:38,101 students at about 3,000 schools protested gun violence. 303 00:15:38,136 --> 00:15:40,532 - What do we want? - Gun control! 304 00:15:40,567 --> 00:15:42,402 - When do we want it? - Now! 305 00:15:42,437 --> 00:15:44,943 - What do we want? - Gun control! 306 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,255 - Guns have been a part of my life for a long time, 307 00:15:49,279 --> 00:15:52,610 and they took my family and friends away. 308 00:15:52,645 --> 00:15:55,085 It's sad that it's normal for somebody to get shot 309 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,351 in Chicago and be killed. 310 00:15:57,386 --> 00:15:59,518 It's never normal for a life to be taken away. 311 00:16:00,620 --> 00:16:02,301 That's all we ever wanted in the first place 312 00:16:02,325 --> 00:16:03,325 was to be listened to. 313 00:16:04,789 --> 00:16:07,163 - I will meet somebody in Chicago, 314 00:16:09,332 --> 00:16:12,432 and I will have more in common with them in one conversation 315 00:16:12,467 --> 00:16:15,138 than it seems that I do with my parents. 316 00:16:15,173 --> 00:16:16,106 - From South Florida 317 00:16:16,141 --> 00:16:17,404 to the South Side of Chicago, 318 00:16:17,439 --> 00:16:19,043 these two groups of young people 319 00:16:19,078 --> 00:16:21,111 are vowing to work together on the gun issue. 320 00:16:21,146 --> 00:16:23,014 - So Emma, what is the plan? 321 00:16:23,049 --> 00:16:25,115 You say you want to spark a national movement. 322 00:16:25,150 --> 00:16:26,424 It's one thing to talk about it, 323 00:16:26,448 --> 00:16:29,152 it's another thing to actually make it happen. 324 00:16:29,187 --> 00:16:31,748 - We're going to be doing a March on Washington, 325 00:16:31,783 --> 00:16:34,421 where we get students all over the country 326 00:16:34,456 --> 00:16:36,390 are going to be joining us. 327 00:16:36,425 --> 00:16:38,128 - Everyone in the world knows about this. 328 00:16:38,163 --> 00:16:39,195 - About March 24th. 329 00:16:39,230 --> 00:16:41,263 - It's about March 24th. 330 00:16:46,171 --> 00:16:49,172 - Welcome to the Loews and Loews Conference Center. 331 00:16:49,207 --> 00:16:52,142 - I never was on a conference call before all of this. 332 00:16:52,177 --> 00:16:54,452 And it was like, who's speaking, like who am I talking to? 333 00:16:54,476 --> 00:16:57,048 I can't recognize voice from voice. 334 00:16:57,083 --> 00:16:58,291 - You're never not working, are you? 335 00:16:58,315 --> 00:16:59,315 - No. 336 00:17:01,252 --> 00:17:03,582 - We were up until midnight every night. 337 00:17:04,783 --> 00:17:07,190 - The people who were skeptical, they said, 338 00:17:07,225 --> 00:17:09,687 "Oh, there's no way these kids got that city permit 339 00:17:09,722 --> 00:17:11,392 "and build that stage." 340 00:17:11,427 --> 00:17:14,164 You're completely right, I did not build the stage. 341 00:17:14,199 --> 00:17:16,430 I just had to sit on two hour conference calls, 342 00:17:16,465 --> 00:17:17,662 discussing those things 343 00:17:17,697 --> 00:17:19,796 where I wanted to tear all of my hair out. 344 00:17:22,174 --> 00:17:24,372 What had started in that little bedroom 345 00:17:24,407 --> 00:17:27,606 was now so much bigger than us. 346 00:17:31,579 --> 00:17:33,348 It was like, the world was a video game 347 00:17:34,384 --> 00:17:37,418 and we knew the codes. 348 00:17:46,231 --> 00:17:49,661 - Yeah. 349 00:18:06,746 --> 00:18:08,713 - I remember being backstage, and I was like, 350 00:18:08,748 --> 00:18:11,221 okay,

big guns. 784 00:40:34,730 --> 00:40:36,224 'Cause Texas people don't play. 785 00:40:36,259 --> 00:40:37,632 They have like AR-15s 786 00:40:37,667 --> 00:40:39,469 and like just like they just go crazy. 787 00:40:41,638 --> 00:40:43,033 - Oh, yeah. 788 00:40:43,068 --> 00:40:44,243 - We had security following us on the bus 789 00:40:44,267 --> 00:40:46,036 because there are protests for panels 790 00:40:46,071 --> 00:40:48,610 where there will be like 10 people 791 00:40:48,645 --> 00:40:50,744 strapped to the nines with their MAGA hats 792 00:40:50,779 --> 00:40:52,240 and their don't tread on me flags 793 00:40:52,275 --> 00:40:53,549 or come and take it flags. 794 00:40:53,584 --> 00:40:54,957 - We support the second amendment. 795 00:40:54,981 --> 00:40:57,047 Thank you very much for coming out here today. 796 00:40:57,082 --> 00:40:58,213 We're all on the same page. 797 00:41:01,592 --> 00:41:02,756 The Utah Gun Exchange, 798 00:41:02,791 --> 00:41:04,989 known for its flashy and upfront message, 799 00:41:05,024 --> 00:41:07,002 has been following the rallies across the country. 800 00:41:07,026 --> 00:41:08,762 - While the March For Our Lives Rally 801 00:41:08,797 --> 00:41:10,500 is going on, this group is going on, 802 00:41:10,535 --> 00:41:12,128 what they're calling, a Freedom Tour. 803 00:41:12,163 --> 00:41:13,998 - At every location, Road to Change 804 00:41:14,033 --> 00:41:15,670 is faced with counter protesters. 805 00:41:15,705 --> 00:41:16,979 - Hey, if you think guns are the problem, 806 00:41:17,003 --> 00:41:18,277 how come you have armed security guards here? 807 00:41:18,301 --> 00:41:20,037 Like hundreds of police officers. 808 00:41:20,072 --> 00:41:21,610 Don't you think they should disarm? 809 00:41:21,645 --> 00:41:23,909 - No, because we're not anti-gun. 810 00:41:23,944 --> 00:41:24,976 - Oh, you're not? 811 00:41:25,011 --> 00:41:26,681 - No, we're not anti-gun at all. 812 00:41:26,716 --> 00:41:30,586 We're pro, people who have proper training to use weapons, 813 00:41:30,621 --> 00:41:32,181 and have proper background checks. 814 00:41:32,216 --> 00:41:34,183 - So only people who have proper training, 815 00:41:34,218 --> 00:41:35,932 so that means like a regular person like me 816 00:41:35,956 --> 00:41:37,659 can't carry a gun? 817 00:41:37,694 --> 00:41:38,326 - No, if you wanted a gun, then you should get the training. 818 00:41:38,362 --> 00:41:39,027 - I have the training. 819 00:41:39,062 --> 00:41:39,828 - Are you a law abiding citizen? 820 00:41:39,863 --> 00:41:40,829 - I am a law abiding citizen. 821 00:41:40,864 --> 00:41:41,529 - Well then you would be able to get a gun. 822 00:41:41,565 --> 00:41:43,863 - Oh, I can have a gun? 823 00:41:43,898 --> 00:41:44,430 - We're nottrying to take guns away from people 824 00:41:44,465 --> 00:41:45,331 who already have them. 825 00:41:45,366 --> 00:41:47,130 Sometimes we would go out and talk to them 826 00:41:47,165 --> 00:41:50,100 and sometimes the security guys would be like, 827 00:41:50,135 --> 00:41:52,641 it's not safe out there. 828 00:41:52,676 --> 00:41:56,073 We don't really like the attitude of these guys. 829 00:41:56,108 --> 00:41:57,613 The other day was fine, 830 00:41:57,648 --> 00:42:00,176 but today I recommend you do not go out there. 831 00:42:02,345 --> 00:42:05,115 - One of the protesters in El Paso, Texas, 832 00:42:05,150 --> 00:42:07,689 ended up following us to our hotel. 833 00:42:07,724 --> 00:42:09,570 - Can they see us from there? - I don't know. 834 00:42:09,594 --> 00:42:11,792 They look like they're looking up though. 835 00:42:11,827 --> 00:42:13,321 - They're not. - Took their handgun 836 00:42:13,356 --> 00:42:15,961 and started going down the hallways of our hotel. 837 00:42:15,996 --> 00:42:17,567 - I've been spotted. 838 00:42:17,602 --> 00:42:18,746 They're gonna shoot through the window. 839 00:42:18,770 --> 00:42:21,197 - While live streaming us on Facebook and saying, 840 00:42:21,232 --> 00:42:24,299 this is where David Hogg and Emma Gonzalez are. 841 00:42:24,334 --> 00:42:25,300 - What's going on, honey? 842 00:42:25,335 --> 00:42:29,876 - There was a death threat and so it's not. 843 00:42:29,911 --> 00:42:31,339 - Who sent the death threat? 844 00:42:31,374 --> 00:42:33,913 - Someone sent it on Twitter from North Carolina though, 845 00:42:33,948 --> 00:42:36,179 so I'm just nervous. 846 00:42:37,721 --> 00:42:38,984 - I'm sorry. 847 00:42:43,628 --> 00:42:47,762 - If they kill me they proved my point. 848 00:42:47,797 --> 00:42:49,709 I think Maxine Waters said it best when somebody was like, 849 00:42:49,733 --> 00:42:52,030 "I wanna kill you" and she told them to shoot straight. 850 00:43:01,778 --> 00:43:03,173 - Hi! - Hi. 851 00:43:03,208 --> 00:43:04,746 I didn't mean to interrupt you guys. 852 00:43:04,781 --> 00:43:06,209 - Oh, that's okay. 853 00:43:06,244 --> 00:43:07,210 - But anyway, I just wanted to bring you guys 854 00:43:07,245 --> 00:43:09,113 some weekend food. 855 00:43:09,148 --> 00:43:10,378 - Oh, you're so sweet. 856 00:43:10,413 --> 00:43:11,621 Thank you so much. 857 00:43:11,656 --> 00:43:13,381 What is your name? - Kendall. 858 00:43:13,416 --> 00:43:15,757 - Wow, thank you so much. 859 00:43:15,792 --> 00:43:18,023 - At first I intentionally kept myself away 860 00:43:18,058 --> 00:43:19,992 from like all the families. 861 00:43:22,062 --> 00:43:23,743 It's like, I don't wanna know about the grieving parents. 862 00:43:23,767 --> 00:43:24,876 I don't wanna know about the family. 863 00:43:24,900 --> 00:43:27,604 'Cause like that just furthers 864 00:43:28,871 --> 00:43:32,169 the pain and the suffering. 865 00:43:32,204 --> 00:43:33,742 And then I realized that like, 866 00:43:34,877 --> 00:43:36,206 that's not necessarily the case. 867 00:43:41,081 --> 00:43:43,246 I didn't actually know that Nick had a brother. 868 00:43:46,317 --> 00:43:51,155 I found out that while I was in the classroom with Nick, 869 00:43:51,762 --> 00:43:53,157 Alex was across the hall. 870 00:43:54,127 --> 00:43:56,193 He was grazed by a bullet. 871 00:43:58,802 --> 00:44:01,902 When I met Alex, I didn't feel that being around him 872 00:44:01,937 --> 00:44:03,200 was really triggering. 873 00:44:03,235 --> 00:44:04,674 I felt the opposite. 874 00:44:04,709 --> 00:44:06,775 I felt being around him was very comforting. 875 00:44:07,976 --> 00:44:10,273 - I hate when people say like, "Are you okay?" 876 00:44:10,308 --> 00:44:12,979 Like obviously the fucking I'm not, 877 00:44:14,444 --> 00:44:16,686 like there was so many people at my house after. 878 00:44:16,721 --> 00:44:19,348 So like it was good. 879 00:44:19,383 --> 00:44:22,417 But like, I guess you could say I have trust issues. 880 00:44:22,452 --> 00:44:24,793 'Cause it's like, you're at school. 881 00:44:24,828 --> 00:44:26,157 - I totally get that. - Yeah. 882 00:44:28,194 --> 00:44:29,127 Like if there's glass around me, 883 00:44:29,162 --> 00:44:30,865 I always look, I don't know. 884 00:44:30,900 --> 00:44:32,966 - I noticed. 885 00:44:33,001 --> 00:44:34,440 I noticed when you were sitting in the restaurant. 886 00:44:34,464 --> 00:44:37,267 I noticed when you were sitting in the house. 887 00:44:38,468 --> 00:44:40,105 We're afraid of the same thing, 888 00:44:40,140 --> 00:44:42,470 sort of paranoid of people's actions. 889 00:44:42,505 --> 00:44:45,473 It's all just tied it into like one 890 00:44:45,508 --> 00:44:47,145 with some atrocious ribbon, 891 00:44:47,180 --> 00:44:48,817 - Do you have the same thing? 892 00:44:48,852 --> 00:44:51,820 - Yeah, for me, it's like the smell. 893 00:44:51,855 --> 00:44:54,856 - Yeah, I remember you were like, "What's that smell?" 894 00:44:54,891 --> 00:44:58,255 - Like loud noises, like looking at everybody. 895 00:44:58,290 --> 00:44:59,861 There isn't a lot of people who can 896 00:44:59,896 --> 00:45:01,390 relate to that feeling. 897 00:45:01,425 --> 00:45:04,030 Looking for someone but not knowing what I was looking for. 898 00:45:04,065 --> 00:45:05,834 - Yeah. 899 00:45:05,869 --> 00:45:08,166 - Yeah, I honestly feel like Alex at times 900 00:45:08,201 --> 00:45:10,839 is the only person who does. 901 00:45:10,874 --> 00:45:12,038 - Oh, I do that too. 902 00:45:12,073 --> 00:45:13,809 A teacher once was like, "Stop chewing it." 903 00:45:13,844 --> 00:45:15,745 - It reminds me that if I needed someone 904 00:45:15,780 --> 00:45:17,505 to talk to, I could. 905 00:45:17,540 --> 00:45:19,782 Oh and I destroy my fingernails. 906 00:45:21,445 --> 00:45:23,214 - The policies you are marching for 907 00:45:23,249 --> 00:45:25,249 will not protect any children. 908 00:45:27,055 --> 00:45:29,022 It will harm children. 909 00:45:29,057 --> 00:45:31,354 It will take away their liberty. 910 00:45:33,061 --> 00:45:36,425 The only thing that will stop a bad guy with a gun 911 00:45:36,460 --> 00:45:38,229 is a good guy with a gun. 912 00:45:39,529 --> 00:45:41,166 - Go home. 913 00:45:41,201 --> 00:45:42,365 - Go home. 914 00:45:48,076 --> 00:45:51,044 - The sources of those people's anger, 915 00:45:51,079 --> 00:45:52,342 it's pain that they feel 916 00:45:52,377 --> 00:45:54,337 because they feel misunderstood and misconstrued. 917 00:45:57,547 --> 00:45:58,691 The reason they are counter protesting 918 00:45:58,715 --> 00:46:01,054 is 'cause they don't think we're going to go out there. 919 00:46:01,089 --> 00:46:03,419 They don't think that we care about what they have to say. 920 00:46:04,829 --> 00:46:06,509 We care about what everybody has to say. 921 00:46:09,592 --> 00:46:11,262 People feel like they aren't heard. 922 00:46:13,530 --> 00:46:15,464 - As a grandma myself, 923 00:46:15,499 --> 00:46:17,301 every one of my grandkids attend a school 924 00:46:17,336 --> 00:46:19,138 where they have armed staff. 925 00:46:19,173 --> 00:46:21,305 I wouldn't rather have my kids go anywhere else 926 00:46:21,340 --> 00:46:22,845 but the schools they go to 927 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:25,573 because there's somebody there that's gonna step up. 928 00:46:25,608 --> 00:46:28,510 So my grandkids aren't cowering down behind a desk, 929 00:46:28,545 --> 00:46:32,382 in a closet, hoping and praying to God 930 00:46:32,417 --> 00:46:35,121 that somebody gets there and stops the bad guy 931 00:46:35,156 --> 00:46:36,892 before he finds them. 932 00:46:36,927 --> 00:46:38,355 - We also were praying that too. 933 00:46:38,390 --> 00:46:39,590 While I was in that in closet. 934 00:46:44,264 --> 00:46:46,396 - That's having two jobs. 935 00:46:46,431 --> 00:46:47,496 Basically as a teacher, 936 00:46:47,531 --> 00:46:49,465 then protecting the kids as well. 937 00:46:49,500 --> 00:46:51,137 - I don't think a teacher 938 00:46:51,172 --> 00:46:52,138 who doesn't want to carry a gun 939 00:46:52,173 --> 00:46:53,469 should be required to. 940 00:46:53,504 --> 00:46:55,306 - I don't either. - We're not talking that. 941 00:46:55,341 --> 00:46:56,978 - You think volunteer people, 942 00:46:57,013 --> 00:46:59,277 how about volunteer security guards? 943 00:46:59,312 --> 00:47:00,952 - It's a very tough conversation to have 944 00:47:00,984 --> 00:47:05,052 because putting a firearm in a situation in general 945 00:47:05,087 --> 00:47:06,515 can mean someone else dies. 946 00:47:06,550 --> 00:47:08,891 And that can be the bad guy and that can be the good guy 947 00:47:08,926 --> 00:47:10,585 or just an innocent bystander. 948 00:47:10,620 --> 00:47:12,235 Any of you that have been in a shooting, 949 00:47:12,259 --> 00:47:14,292 you can understand that. 950 00:47:14,327 --> 00:47:17,031 Those 150 hours of training mean nothing 951 00:47:17,066 --> 00:47:18,395 in that one split second. 952 00:47:18,430 --> 00:47:20,870 - So because you don't rise to the occasion, 953 00:47:20,905 --> 00:47:23,169 you fall to your most basic level of training. 954 00:47:23,204 --> 00:47:25,402 - Exactly, and no amount of training can train you 955 00:47:25,437 --> 00:47:26,103 out of that instinct. 956 00:47:26,138 --> 00:47:28,878 And that's my biggest reluctance 957 00:47:28,913 --> 00:47:31,342 to specifically putting more guns in schools, 958 00:47:31,377 --> 00:47:32,585 which I'm sure you guys can understand. 959 00:47:32,609 --> 00:47:34,180 - I don't necessarily agree with it 960 00:47:34,215 --> 00:47:36,017 but I respect your opinion, that's fine. 961 00:47:36,052 --> 00:47:38,547 - Isn't it better to give people the liberty 962 00:47:38,582 --> 00:47:41,451 to at least try to defend themselves. 963 00:47:41,486 --> 00:47:45,026 Isn't that more preferable than taking my defensive tools 964 00:47:45,061 --> 00:47:46,261 and my liberties away from me? 965 00:47:46,293 --> 00:47:47,391 - That's what I asked them. 966 00:47:47,426 --> 00:47:48,535 And they said, they're not anti-gun, 967 00:47:48,559 --> 00:47:50,328 they're just for common sense, whatever. 968 00:47:50,363 --> 00:47:51,912 They're literally not trying to take guns away, 969 00:47:51,936 --> 00:47:53,100 that's what I hear anyways. 970 00:47:53,135 --> 00:47:56,004 But you hear a lot of things from inside. 971 00:47:56,039 --> 00:47:57,214 - We hear a lot from your side too. 972 00:47:57,238 --> 00:47:58,413 - This is what creates America. 973 00:47:58,437 --> 00:47:59,909 This is what America is about. 974 00:47:59,944 --> 00:48:02,472 Coming together, come on, let me shake your hand. 975 00:48:02,507 --> 00:48:05,310 - I appreciate y'all coming out of here, man. 976 00:48:16,026 --> 00:48:18,653 - What fuels movements is not anger. 977 00:48:20,426 --> 00:48:23,196 We need to have a conversation about this violence. 978 00:48:23,231 --> 00:48:24,164 - This is what America's about. 979 00:48:24,199 --> 00:48:25,396 It's about love. 980 00:48:25,431 --> 00:48:27,398 Nothing else but love. 981 00:48:27,433 --> 00:48:28,443 If we're divided, we fall. 982 00:48:28,467 --> 00:48:31,501 If we don't come together, we fall. 983 00:48:31,536 --> 00:48:32,634 Do y'all want that? 984 00:48:34,110 --> 00:48:36,506 - And you can sound being inauthentic about that 985 00:48:36,541 --> 00:48:40,081 but that's honestly why we went to Dallas, Texas. 986 00:49:03,172 --> 00:49:05,502 - I think it's cool that these kids are doing something 987 00:49:05,537 --> 00:49:06,602 that they believe in. 988 00:49:06,637 --> 00:49:08,439 - I mean, yeah, I get that part. 989 00:49:08,474 --> 00:49:09,754 - You don't see that very often. 990 00:49:15,580 --> 00:49:19,219 - I cannot even tell you what was going on in my head. 991 00:49:21,586 --> 00:49:24,719 I had no time to think about anything that had happened. 992 00:49:24,754 --> 00:49:27,656 I had no time to realize what the world was 993 00:49:27,691 --> 00:49:29,361 or what our place in it was anymore. 994 00:49:31,332 --> 00:49:33,596 I would sit down at night and I would think, 995 00:49:33,631 --> 00:49:35,004 can you believe this happened? 996 00:49:35,039 --> 00:49:35,631 And I would feel nothing. 997 00:49:35,666 --> 00:49:37,204 I would go to bed. 998 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:39,602 And then I would be walking somewhere during the day. 999 00:49:39,637 --> 00:49:41,043 You know, we'd be at the courthouse 1000 00:49:41,078 --> 00:49:43,111 or we'd be at doing some TV hit somewhere. 1001 00:49:43,146 --> 00:49:45,344 We'd be meeting with some of the Sandy Hook family, 1002 00:49:45,379 --> 00:49:47,082 or whatever it might be. 1003 00:49:47,117 --> 00:49:49,546 I would just be in a time when I had to be on 1004 00:49:51,616 --> 00:49:53,253 and I would just burst into tears. 1005 00:49:56,456 --> 00:50:00,062 - Let me ask you, you knew where you were coming, 1006 00:50:00,097 --> 00:50:02,658 that we were carrying, why did you still approach us? 1007 00:50:03,793 --> 00:50:05,243 - I want to talk. - Good, thank you. 1008 00:50:05,267 --> 00:50:07,234 - Appreciate it. 1009 00:50:07,269 --> 00:50:08,480 - I hope you feel safe because you are welcome here. 1010 00:50:08,504 --> 00:50:11,403 You're welcome to stay with us as long as you would like. 1011 00:50:11,438 --> 00:50:13,108 - My dad has a concealed carry. 1012 00:50:13,143 --> 00:50:14,154 - Are you from March For Our Live? 1013 00:50:14,178 --> 00:50:15,550 - Yes, I'm from the March For Our Lives. 1014 00:50:15,574 --> 00:50:17,343 - Are you from Florida? 1015 00:50:17,378 --> 00:50:18,454 - Yes, I'm from Parkland, Florida. 1016 00:50:18,478 --> 00:50:20,247 - Okay, I think I know who you are. 1017 00:50:20,282 --> 00:50:21,710 - What's your name? - Tommy. 1018 00:50:21,745 --> 00:50:23,129 - Tommy, my first baseball game was an Astros. 1019 00:50:23,153 --> 00:50:24,647 - Okay, dude, You know what, man? 1020 00:50:24,682 --> 00:50:26,165 I thought I could just be real with you. 1021 00:50:26,189 --> 00:50:30,653 You guys are being used by politics, man. 1022 00:50:30,688 --> 00:50:32,061 - I'm sure, yeah. 1023 00:50:32,096 --> 00:50:34,459 - You guys are being sucked into the machine. 1024 00:50:34,494 --> 00:50:36,494 They put you and all your friends on TV, 1025 00:50:36,529 --> 00:50:38,331 you got on the covers of magazines 1026 00:50:38,366 --> 00:50:40,267 and it made you feel real nice and good. 1027 00:50:40,302 --> 00:50:41,532 - See, it didn't. 1028 00:50:41,567 --> 00:50:42,830 - They're using you, man. 1029 00:50:42,865 --> 00:50:44,535 - Well, here's the thing, two things. 1030 00:50:44,570 --> 00:50:45,811 Number one, I haven't felt nice or good in a while. 1031 00:50:45,835 --> 00:50:47,351 I'm a deeply traumatized individual. 1032 00:50:47,375 --> 00:50:48,572 I'm just one with a purpose 1033 00:50:48,607 --> 00:50:49,683 because I know that since I'm lucky enough 1034 00:50:49,707 --> 00:50:50,772 to be alive right now, 1035 00:50:50,807 --> 00:50:52,257 I have to do something to make sure 1036 00:50:52,281 --> 00:50:54,578 that when my friend died, he didn't die in vain. 1037 00:50:54,613 --> 00:50:56,162 You can call us puppets all you want, 1038 00:50:56,186 --> 00:50:58,384 for coming out of a school shooting 1039 00:50:58,419 --> 00:51:00,848 and thinking school shootings could be stopped by something. 1040 00:51:00,883 --> 00:51:02,333 The puzzle piece that you're missing, 1041 00:51:02,357 --> 00:51:04,291 is that I put me in the media. 1042 00:51:04,326 --> 00:51:06,260 I went out there where I knew the cameras were 1043 00:51:06,295 --> 00:51:07,866 and I stood in front of them and I said, "You know what, 1044 00:51:07,890 --> 00:51:09,439 "let me tell you what happened right there." 1045 00:51:09,463 --> 00:51:10,726 Because the worst thing 1046 00:51:10,761 --> 00:51:14,301 that could have possibly happened, happened, right? 1047 00:51:14,336 --> 00:51:16,171 Because if you had shown me February 1st 1048 00:51:16,206 --> 00:51:18,800 that right now I would be advocating for political policy, 1049 00:51:18,835 --> 00:51:20,406 I would say great. 1050 00:51:20,441 --> 00:51:21,374 I've always wanted to advocate for political policy. 1051 00:51:21,409 --> 00:51:23,310 If you had said, 1052 00:51:23,345 --> 00:51:24,177 here's what it would take for you guys to get your platform. 1053 00:51:24,213 --> 00:51:26,247 I would have said, okay, obviously not. 1054 00:51:26,282 --> 00:51:28,612 Well, you know what I'm living in obviously not. 1055 00:51:28,647 --> 00:51:30,680 My reality is the obviously not. 1056 00:51:30,715 --> 00:51:32,583 I don't know if you ever read comic books, 1057 00:51:32,618 --> 00:51:34,750 but if you look at the alternate universes, 1058 00:51:34,785 --> 00:51:36,719 we're in the worst one. 1059 00:51:36,754 --> 00:51:38,523 Look, I could be at summer camp right now. 1060 00:51:38,558 --> 00:51:40,723 My initial plan was to be at summer camp. 1061 00:51:40,758 --> 00:51:41,769 And then I was going to go for one session, 1062 00:51:41,793 --> 00:51:44,859 then work at my comic book store and be happy 1063 00:51:44,894 --> 00:51:46,179 because that's what I would've wanted to do. 1064 00:51:46,203 --> 00:51:47,433 The thing is, people are dead. 1065 00:52:02,780 --> 00:52:07,618 ♪ I know what you wanna say ♪ 1066 00:52:10,326 --> 00:52:15,164 ♪ I think that you're all the same ♪

of how I was when I was younger. 1127 00:56:05,693 --> 00:56:07,133 Like in my mind, he's a little kid. 1128 00:56:08,894 --> 00:56:11,730 Before Florida was colonized into like a state, 1129 00:56:11,765 --> 00:56:14,568 the Spanish actually came here first 1130 00:56:14,603 --> 00:56:16,636 to find the Fountain of Youth. 1131 00:56:16,671 --> 00:56:19,837 Apparently the myth goes that if

00:57:43,791 --> 00:57:45,153 Anyways. 1167 00:57:45,188 --> 00:57:46,836 He probably doesn't even know that I do this, 1168 00:57:46,860 --> 00:57:48,123 but I worry about him a lot. 1169 00:57:51,634 --> 00:57:53,766 I won't ever be able to understand what it feels like 1170 00:57:53,801 --> 00:57:55,130 to lose a brother. 1171 00:57:55,165 --> 00:57:58,100 But I do know what it feels like to lose a friend. 1172 00:58:05,010 --> 00:58:06,944 - Jackie's getting Matt, Jamal, and Chris. 1173 00:58:06,979 --> 00:58:09,144 - You can have a midlife crisis at any age. 1174 00:58:09,179 --> 00:58:11,619 - Are you getting Matt, Jamal, and Chris? 1175 00:58:11,654 --> 00:58:14,149 - When I got further into the tour, I was like, 1176 00:58:14,184 --> 00:58:15,524 you have two different people 1177 00:58:15,559 --> 00:58:16,602 from like two different perspectives. 1178 00:58:16,626 --> 00:58:18,087 But when you talk some 1179 00:58:18,122 --> 00:58:19,704 you find out that you have like the same things in common. 1180 00:58:19,728 --> 00:58:21,959 ♪ Ma, ma, ma, ma ma ma, ma ma, ma ♪ 1181 00:58:21,994 --> 00:58:26,293 ♪ Ma, ma, ma ma, ma ♪ 1182 00:58:26,328 --> 00:58:28,130 It was two different communities, 1183 00:58:28,165 --> 00:58:29,967 but we were sharing one thing in common. 1184 00:58:30,002 --> 00:58:31,936 It was that trauma and it was the sadness. 1185 00:58:34,105 --> 00:58:36,677 - One of the earliest days that I knew Bria, 1186 00:58:36,712 --> 00:58:39,779 we were talking about the day of the shooting, 1187 00:58:39,814 --> 00:58:41,308 things that were bothering us, 1188 00:58:41,343 --> 00:58:42,354 things that we couldn't say in the media, 1189 00:58:42,378 --> 00:58:44,883 because we didn't want to glorify the shooter. 1190 00:58:46,018 --> 00:58:49,118 And Bria had been talking about her experience in Milwaukee 1191 00:58:49,153 --> 00:58:51,318 and so we just spent the whole evening 1192 00:58:51,353 --> 00:58:53,056 basically discussing our trauma. 1193 00:58:57,832 --> 00:59:01,130 From that day on we really like understood each other. 1194 00:59:04,641 --> 00:59:05,717 - I remember talking about like planning 1195 00:59:05,741 --> 00:59:07,202 for the Walk Out at my school. 1196 00:59:08,876 --> 00:59:11,151 I got a text message saying that one of my friends had shot 1197 00:59:11,175 --> 00:59:12,845 and killed himself that day. 1198 00:59:13,980 --> 00:59:16,849 I think when that happened, that's when I like shifted, 1199 00:59:16,884 --> 00:59:18,092 you know, that's what I was like, 1200 00:59:18,116 --> 00:59:20,985 okay, guns and young people is very important. 1201 00:59:21,020 --> 00:59:22,349 Like we need to talk about this, 1202 00:59:22,384 --> 00:59:24,186 we need to address this as a whole. 1203 00:59:26,894 --> 00:59:29,994 It reminded me the didst of like the Civil Rights era. 1204 00:59:30,029 --> 00:59:32,293 It was Black people and White people and Latino people 1205 00:59:32,328 --> 00:59:34,603 and advocating and fighting for the same thing, 1206 00:59:34,638 --> 00:59:36,078 which is the essential right to life. 1207 00:59:37,267 --> 00:59:39,971 Me and Matt's friendship is unlikely. 1208 00:59:40,006 --> 00:59:42,204 The people in power today, 1209 00:59:42,239 --> 00:59:44,613 the entire blood-soaked power structure, 1210 00:59:44,648 --> 00:59:47,044 want nothing more than for us to be divided. 1211 00:59:48,212 --> 00:59:50,047 - To silo our cause 1212 00:59:50,082 --> 00:59:53,655 but our unity is their greatest fear. 1213 00:59:53,690 --> 00:59:55,624 - Because when a Jewish kid from Maryland 1214 00:59:55,659 --> 00:59:57,890 and a black inner city kid from Milwaukee come together 1215 00:59:57,925 --> 00:59:59,727 and stand in solidarity. 1216 00:59:59,762 --> 01:00:02,356 - When those kids join up with kids from Chicago, Houston, 1217 01:00:02,391 --> 01:00:04,864 LA, St. Louis, Parkland, and New Town, 1218 01:00:04,899 --> 01:00:06,371 to fight violence in all communities. 1219 01:00:06,395 --> 01:00:08,835 - When young people from every race, gender, 1220 01:00:08,870 --> 01:00:11,233 sexuality, and state defy the narrative 1221 01:00:11,268 --> 01:00:13,334 that we have to be isolated from each other 1222 01:00:13,369 --> 01:00:15,171 and afraid of each other. 1223 01:00:15,206 --> 01:00:18,207 - You know that there is a new and unsettling force 1224 01:00:18,242 --> 01:00:20,077 for change in this country. 1225 01:00:20,112 --> 01:00:22,981 - You know that we're going to win. 1226 01:00:23,016 --> 01:00:24,917 You know that we're going to win. 1227 01:00:24,952 --> 01:00:27,722 You know that we are going to win. 1228 01:00:28,725 --> 01:00:33,354 ♪ I was born by the river ♪

killed in Memphis, Tennessee. 1239 01:01:10,129 --> 01:01:14,065 What you probably do not know is the 1974, 1240 01:01:14,100 --> 01:01:18,267 just a few years later, my grandmother, his mother, 1241 01:01:18,302 --> 01:01:21,303 was gunned down in Ebenezer Baptist Church. 1242 01:01:21,338 --> 01:01:25,307 I'm excited because I have not recently seen a movement 1243 01:01:25,342 --> 01:01:29,883 like this since 1963, when 3000 students, 1244 01:01:29,918 --> 01:01:33,953 high school students, in Birmingham led that movement. 1245 01:01:33,988 --> 01:01:36,956 So momentum is coming and a

McBath. 1255 01:02:15,392 --> 01:02:18,129 Lucy is running for Congress. 1256 01:02:18,164 --> 01:02:20,769 Lucy, yes! 1257 01:02:20,804 --> 01:02:22,903 - Her teenage son was shot and killed 1258 01:02:22,938 --> 01:02:25,334 by a man who said he felt threatened. 1259 01:02:25,369 --> 01:02:27,776 Now, she is running for Congress 1260 01:02:27,811 --> 01:02:29,437 to fight for gun control. 1261 01:02:38,085 --> 01:02:41,086 You were the best panelist. 1262 01:02:42,584 --> 01:02:44,859 And I want you to make sure Wisconsin does 1263 01:02:44,894 --> 01:02:46,993 one thing in November, get rid of Scott Walker. 1264 01:02:47,028 --> 01:02:48,863 Please. - That's what I'm saying. 1265 01:02:50,526 --> 01:02:52,196 - Support for the NRA is on the decline. 1266 01:02:52,231 --> 01:02:55,034 40% of Americans now view the NRA negatively. 1267 01:02:55,069 --> 01:02:56,112 - The NRA's approval ratings 1268 01:02:56,136 --> 01:02:57,564 are deeply underwater. 1269 01:02:57,599 --> 01:02:59,841 - The kids that mobilized themselves 1270 01:02:59,876 --> 01:03:01,447 after Parkland may have actually helped 1271 01:03:01,471 --> 01:03:03,009 to change the calculus. 1272 01:03:03,044 --> 01:03:06,111 We have never seen a shift in the politics of guns 1273 01:03:06,146 --> 01:03:07,310 for almost 20 years. 1274 01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:09,345 That may have changed. 1275 01:03:17,058 --> 01:03:18,233 - Over the course of the summer 1276 01:03:18,257 --> 01:03:21,896 I've had interviews, panels, TV specials, 1277 01:03:22,998 --> 01:03:24,305 little articles that I was writing 1278 01:03:24,329 --> 01:03:25,369 were gonna be featured in. 1279 01:03:26,870 --> 01:03:29,937 And then it hit me, like I'm here in Manhattan 1280 01:03:29,972 --> 01:03:31,268 receiving an award. 1281 01:03:38,981 --> 01:03:41,080 And it's like, Morgan Freeman's in one corner, 1282 01:03:41,115 --> 01:03:42,475 Stephen King's in the other corner. 1283 01:03:44,316 --> 01:03:46,184 Where do I fit in, in all of this? 1284 01:03:47,319 --> 01:03:48,890 - Thank you everybody. 1285 01:03:48,925 --> 01:03:52,586 We are so honored to give this award 1286 01:03:52,621 --> 01:03:55,622 to these three terrific people 1287 01:03:55,657 --> 01:03:58,427 who have shown amazing courage and leadership 1288 01:03:58,462 --> 01:04:00,935 following a terrible tragedy. 1289 01:04:04,666 --> 01:04:07,172 - Good evening, it's a beautiful day in New York City, 1290 01:04:07,207 --> 01:04:09,471 The PEN America Literary Gala. 1291 01:04:09,506 --> 01:04:12,243 I'm so honored that I could be a part of it. 1292 01:04:12,278 --> 01:04:14,344 When I was finally up on that stage, 1293 01:04:14,379 --> 01:04:18,183 it felt like I was at the March all over again. 1294 01:04:18,218 --> 01:04:20,889 I've learned a whole lot of interesting things. 1295 01:04:20,924 --> 01:04:25,223 I could feel the same fear at the bottom of my gut. 1296 01:04:25,258 --> 01:04:28,028 Education is the very foundations. 1297 01:04:28,063 --> 01:04:30,195 I remember just thinking like great, 1298 01:04:30,230 --> 01:04:34,364 there's no windows in this room, there's no clear exits. 1299 01:04:34,399 --> 01:04:37,334 I started getting more and more fearful 1300 01:04:37,369 --> 01:04:40,337 for what it might do to me. 1301 01:04:40,372 --> 01:04:41,668 I suppose I won this award 1302 01:04:41,703 --> 01:04:43,538 because I'm doing the right thing 1303 01:04:43,573 --> 01:04:46,607 and prioritizing people's lives over guns. 1304 01:04:46,642 --> 01:04:49,115 It's a simple and straightforward cause. 1305 01:04:49,150 --> 01:04:53,218 But in a world that has grown so chaotic and convoluted. 1306 01:04:58,357 --> 01:05:00,093 - We love you. 1307 01:05:11,172 --> 01:05:15,075 When I run off of a stage, I was like immensely embarrassed, 1308 01:05:17,409 --> 01:05:20,179 probably more embarrassed than the first time. 1309 01:05:20,214 --> 01:05:23,083 I'm was disappointed, ashamed. 1310 01:05:23,118 --> 01:05:24,711 And I was absolutely hysterical. 1311 01:05:24,746 --> 01:05:29,991 I was like, off stage behind the dividers. 1312 01:05:30,488 --> 01:05:34,226 And my mom came up to me and I was just asking her like, 1313 01:05:34,261 --> 01:05:37,229 why did I have to do this again? 1314 01:05:37,264 --> 01:05:39,363 Why again? 1315 01:05:39,398 --> 01:05:40,463 Why now? 1316 01:05:45,239 --> 01:05:46,634 God, I'm so stupid. 1317 01:05:46,669 --> 01:05:48,339 I'm so stupid. 1318 01:05:48,374 --> 01:05:50,110 Oh my God, fuck this. 1319 01:05:56,283 --> 01:05:58,415 And I remember my mom. 1320 01:05:58,450 --> 01:06:01,088 She was like rubbing my back. 1321 01:06:01,123 --> 01:06:02,331 And she was just like, it's okay. 1322 01:06:02,355 --> 01:06:03,288 You're just not ready. 1323 01:06:03,323 --> 01:06:04,388 You're just not ready. 1324 01:06:04,423 --> 01:06:06,159 And I'm like, no, mom, I am ready. 1325 01:06:06,194 --> 01:06:07,523 Like you just don't know. 1326 01:06:10,462 --> 01:06:12,341 And that's like, that's what got me on the stage 1327 01:06:12,365 --> 01:06:14,596 because my mom told me I wasn't ready. 1328 01:06:27,644 --> 01:06:31,448 I think sometimes I forget I got shot. 1329 01:06:31,483 --> 01:06:34,154 And I think that like, things are easy sometimes. 1330 01:06:34,189 --> 01:06:36,750 And then I put it on the back burner and I pretend that 1331 01:06:36,785 --> 01:06:38,422 everything's going to be totally fine. 1332 01:06:38,457 --> 01:06:39,533 And then you throw up on stage 1333 01:06:39,557 --> 01:06:40,837 the second fucking time in a row. 1334 01:06:45,299 --> 01:06:48,729 Thank you so much for believing in me, but not just me, 1335 01:06:48,764 --> 01:06:50,280 thank you for believing that together 1336

this award. 1339 01:07:05,484 --> 01:07:08,287 Not only has the shooting like almost taken my life, 1340 01:07:08,322 --> 01:07:09,522 it's taken my sense of safety. 1341 01:07:09,554 --> 01:07:11,059 It's taken my sanity. 1342 01:07:11,094 --> 01:07:12,533 It's took my schooling away from me. 1343 01:07:12,557 --> 01:07:15,261 It took my fucking normal life away from me. 1344 01:07:16,330 --> 01:07:17,330 It took everything. 1345 01:07:21,401 --> 01:07:23,104 You know what, like I'm fucked up. 1346 01:07:23,139 --> 01:07:24,567 Like I wake up and I think people 1347 01:07:24,602 --> 01:07:26,239 are standing out my window 1348 01:07:26,274 --> 01:07:27,350 and I'm gonna fucking shoot me in the head. 1349 01:07:27,374 --> 01:07:28,604 I'm fucked up. 1350 01:07:32,379 --> 01:07:35,545 Usually like when I'm alone, I get triggered by something 1351 01:07:35,580 --> 01:07:39,582 and I start thinking about that day 1352 01:07:39,617 --> 01:07:41,254 and I watch things that I shouldn't, 1353 01:07:43,885 --> 01:07:46,556 I would watch this video probably a million times over, 1354 01:07:48,428 --> 01:07:51,198 the dots represented the shooter and then the victims. 1355 01:07:55,303 --> 01:07:56,841 Watching the breakdown of where the shooter went 1356 01:07:56,865 --> 01:07:58,139 from class to class, 1357 01:07:58,174 --> 01:08:00,471 seeing those dots turn different colors 1358 01:08:00,506 --> 01:08:02,737 does not help by any fucking means at all. 1359 01:08:06,380 --> 01:08:07,676 I know those details, 1360 01:08:07,711 --> 01:08:09,755 but they light up like a Christmas tree in my brain. 1361 01:08:12,551 --> 01:08:14,848 I think about where Nick was sitting. 1362 01:08:16,588 --> 01:08:17,818 What was he wearing? 1363 01:08:17,853 --> 01:08:20,359 Or what kind of shoes was he wearing? 1364 01:08:22,726 --> 01:08:24,264 And the fact that he was 1365 01:08:24,299 --> 01:08:26,662 across the hallway from his brother, 1366 01:08:29,271 --> 01:08:32,173 they had the ability to walk to each other 1367 01:08:32,208 --> 01:08:34,241 and give each other high fives and hugs. 1368 01:08:34,276 --> 01:08:35,276 But they couldn't. 1369 01:08:37,609 --> 01:08:38,609 That alone haunts me. 1370 01:08:41,382 --> 01:08:44,152 The first thing someone said was, is this a drill? 1371 01:08:46,684 --> 01:08:48,387 I remember screaming "what the fuck" 1372 01:08:48,422 --> 01:08:49,422 at the top of my lungs. 1373 01:08:53,295 --> 01:08:54,404 I thought I got shot in the head 1374 01:08:54,428 --> 01:08:56,068 and I thought it was dead for a moment. 1375 01:08:57,530 --> 01:08:59,596 I started to black out, or white out rather. 1376 01:09:02,799 --> 01:09:04,601 I was like, just kind of in this dream, 1377 01:09:04,636 --> 01:09:07,274 weird state of being dead and being alive. 1378 01:09:10,609 --> 01:09:14,314 I think about not like genuine suicide, 1379 01:09:14,349 --> 01:09:16,613 but I think about jumping out of things a lot 1380 01:09:16,648 --> 01:09:20,749 and having to completely end my life, 1381 01:09:20,784 --> 01:09:24,621 like for seconds at a time sometimes, 1382 01:09:24,656 --> 01:09:26,425 but not because I want to die, 1383 01:09:26,460 --> 01:09:28,559 but because I think I'm going to die. 1384 01:09:28,594 --> 01:09:29,659 Does that make sense? 1385 01:09:45,545 --> 01:09:46,841 - This is Batman and Philosophy. 1386 01:09:46,876 --> 01:09:48,645 I bought this actually on the tour. 1387 01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:49,987 We took a night where we were at a mall 1388 01:09:50,011 --> 01:09:51,615 and I just needed something to read 1389 01:09:51,650 --> 01:09:56,389 that was not about guns or guns or gun control or guns. 1390 01:09:58,360 --> 01:10:01,658 So I picked up this book and it's about 1391 01:10:01,693 --> 01:10:04,628 applying general philosophical concepts to Batman. 1392 01:10:04,663 --> 01:10:06,795 And I was like, this seems like not guns. 1393 01:10:11,373 --> 01:10:13,505 I was depressed and I wasn't really realizing it. 1394 01:10:13,540 --> 01:10:14,737 I thought I was just tired. 1395 01:10:16,037 --> 01:10:18,378 We were meeting with a bunch of survivors 1396 01:10:18,413 --> 01:10:20,006 from the shooting in Las Vegas. 1397 01:10:20,041 --> 01:10:22,613 - So I was working the event that night. 1398 01:10:22,648 --> 01:10:25,352 And I see people getting shot 1399 01:10:25,387 --> 01:10:28,916 in front of me and the shooters on top of my head. 1400 01:10:28,951 --> 01:10:30,489 - They told us details 1401 01:10:30,524 --> 01:10:32,524 about what happened to their leg when it got shot, 1402 01:10:32,559 --> 01:10:35,692 how it felt to run on the leg with a bullet in it, 1403 01:10:35,727 --> 01:10:36,792 - From my neck down. 1404 01:10:36,827 --> 01:10:37,991 - I'd spend the whole summer 1405 01:10:38,026 --> 01:10:39,993 hearing stories of people's pain and misery. 1406 01:10:40,028 --> 01:10:43,601 But for some reason they got me. 1407 01:10:45,605 --> 01:10:46,605 I had to walk out. 1408 01:10:47,970 --> 01:10:49,684 - The biggest thing for all of you to know 1409 01:10:49,708 --> 01:10:53,545 the congressmen in the first district and the third district 1410 01:10:53,580 --> 01:10:55,393 they are already people that are pretty good on guns. 1411 01:10:55,417 --> 01:10:57,384 The issue is this guy named, 1412 01:10:57,419 --> 01:10:58,880 what's his name? - Dean Heller. 1413 01:10:58,915 --> 01:11:00,552 - Dean Heller - Yes. 1414 01:11:00,587 --> 01:11:03,588 - Dean Heller has taken a shit load of money from the NRA 1415 01:11:03,623 --> 01:11:05,051 and the attorney general. 1416 01:11:05,086 --> 01:11:06,360 - Adam Laxalt. 1417 01:11:06,395 --> 01:11:08,923 - L-A-X-A-L-T. 1418 01:11:08,958 --> 01:11:11,431 - I felt dizzy and I felt like I was gonna pass out. 1419 01:11:12,896 --> 01:11:14,500 And I said, I can't do this anymore. 1420 01:11:14,535 --> 01:11:17,063 - Carl, Kayla, Jonah, Cameron and Jamal. 1421 01:11:17,098 --> 01:11:18,834 - Is Cameron here? - Where's Cameron? 1422 01:11:21,102 --> 01:11:22,742 - He took the day off, just feeling bad. 1423 01:11:22,774 --> 01:11:24,609 - What's up? - Was he on the program? 1424 01:11:24,644 --> 01:11:25,644 - He was on the program. 1425 01:11:27,713 --> 01:11:30,043 - Is someone taking Cameron's spot or no? 1426 01:11:30,078 --> 01:11:32,045 - Bria. - Bria. 1427 01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:33,816 - So how many people? 1428 01:11:37,954 --> 01:11:39,437 - I'm sorry, I can't take pictures today. 1429 01:11:39,461 --> 01:11:40,856 - All right, thank you. 1430 01:11:40,891 --> 01:11:45,498 - It might be good to emphasize how unhealthy we were 1431 01:11:45,533 --> 01:11:47,104 so that people don't think that it's a good idea 1432 01:11:47,128 --> 01:11:50,063 to do a bus journey of their own. 1433 01:11:56,445 --> 01:11:59,446 I can't actually take pictures right now. 1434 01:11:59,481 --> 01:12:02,647 I was truly a broken person at the end of all that. 1435 01:12:04,079 --> 01:12:05,089 Every time somebody was like, 1436 01:12:05,113 --> 01:12:06,915 "Can I get a picture with you?" 1437 01:12:06,950 --> 01:12:08,114 I was like, this isn't fair 1438 01:12:08,149 --> 01:12:09,599 that I'm getting all of this attention. 1439 01:12:09,623 --> 01:12:10,754 I don't want it. 1440 01:12:13,429 --> 01:12:14,989 Nobody should have this. 1441 01:12:15,024 --> 01:12:16,760 Especially when you're traumatized. 1442 01:12:16,795 --> 01:12:18,124 That's like the worst thing. 1443 01:12:18,159 --> 01:12:18,958 - I've said so many times 1444 01:12:18,993 --> 01:12:21,765 that you are the future, keep going. 1445 01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:23,503 - People come up to us and they're like, 1446 01:12:23,538 --> 01:12:25,769 "Oh, you're so brave." 1447 01:12:25,804 --> 01:12:29,476 And I'm like, am I? 1448 01:12:29,511 --> 01:12:30,543 Am I brave? 1449 01:12:30,578 --> 01:12:32,347 Or am I just hardheaded, am I naive? 1450 01:12:35,814 --> 01:12:37,110 I wrote something. 1451 01:12:37,145 --> 01:12:39,486 And I said it in a way that everybody related to it. 1452 01:12:41,721 --> 01:12:44,359 That's not deserving of anything more than anybody else. 1453 01:12:46,693 --> 01:12:47,857 For that, one more. 1454 01:12:49,828 --> 01:12:50,828 David does a lot more. 1455 01:12:52,061 --> 01:12:52,862 - Ow! 1456 01:12:52,897 --> 01:12:54,160 - I'm so sorry. 1457 01:12:54,195 --> 01:12:56,701 He Tweets like three times an hour. 1458 01:12:56,736 --> 01:12:58,901 I don't know how he has the energy to do that. 1459 01:12:58,936 --> 01:13:00,903 I don't know what just happened with his face. 1460 01:13:04,612 --> 01:13:06,007 He's such a good man. 1461 01:13:09,650 --> 01:13:11,914 - I feel like I have a lot more courage because of Emma. 1462 01:13:14,116 --> 01:13:16,985 I feel like I can like go out there and do these protests 1463 01:13:17,020 --> 01:13:18,690 because of all my friends. 1464 01:13:26,601 --> 01:13:28,535 But I think we all have kind of discovered 1465 01:13:29,868 --> 01:13:30,933 this side of ourselves 1466 01:13:30,968 --> 01:13:33,705 that kind of grew out of us from this. 1467 01:13:33,740 --> 01:13:35,014 Where like, yeah, you can be really happy, 1468 01:13:35,038 --> 01:13:38,875 but you can also be incredibly fucking sad. 1469 01:13:43,079 --> 01:13:45,684 And like the capacity for that sadness, 1470 01:13:45,719 --> 01:13:47,884 that hole of sadness has gotten deeper. 1471 01:13:49,052 --> 01:13:50,788 And how far it can go. 1472 01:13:50,823 --> 01:13:53,593 And honestly, I don't know if there's any bottom. 1473 01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:57,069 Right now we are right across the street 1474 01:13:57,093 --> 01:13:58,565 from Congressman Dana. 1475 01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:00,440 A man that has taken over $42,000 from the NRA. 1476 01:14:01,933 --> 01:14:03,570 We're gonna say, 1477 01:14:03,605 --> 01:14:05,484 "Congressman Dana, we are not gonna vote for you 1478 01:14:05,508 --> 01:14:08,069 "because of $42,000." 1479 01:14:08,104 --> 01:14:09,477 Okay? 1480 01:14:09,512 --> 01:14:10,544 Say it with me. 1481

faces 1490 01:14:41,170 --> 01:14:43,808 and I think, this is what we're fighting for. 1491 01:14:43,843 --> 01:14:45,711 Those kids, they all had lives, 1492 01:14:45,746 --> 01:14:47,845 they had futures ahead of them, 1493 01:14:47,880 --> 01:14:49,715 and I can tell you, 1494 01:14:49,750 --> 01:14:51,860 there are so many students out there that are so excited 1495 01:14:51,884 -->

01:27:08,752 --> 01:27:10,792 Even though the sun's just shining down on a world 1724 01:27:10,820 --> 01:27:12,655 that has taken so very much away from them 1725 01:27:12,690 --> 01:27:16,692 and has shown them no kindness, has shown them no mercy, 1726 01:27:18,399 --> 01:27:20,531 they're gonna get up and they're gonna move. 1727 01:27:20,566 --> 01:27:25,272 And right now the future looks
