When Teenagers Refused to Be Silent
Seventeen people died on Valentine's Day 2018 at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Within hours, something unprecedented happened: the survivors didn't wait for adults to speak for them. They grabbed their phones, called reporters, and declared that this time would be different. What followed wasn't just grief-it was a calculated rebellion against a political system that had normalized school shootings. These teenagers, armed with social media savvy and raw fury, managed to keep gun reform in national headlines longer than any previous mass shooting. They forced corporations to cut ties with the NRA, registered hundreds of thousands of young voters, and made gun violence a defining electoral issue. Their story reveals how trauma can transform into power when young people refuse to accept that "this is just how things are."
