dedicated
metro-Detroit

students,
with
support

adult

People

will
take to
the
streets
of
Washington,
DC and
nearly
every
other
major
city in
the
United
States
to
demand
that
their
lives
and
safety
become a
priority.
Detroiters
will
march at
the
Riverfront
in view
of and
only .5
miles
from
Canada,
a
country
that has
51 times
fewer
gun
deaths
than the

States.
We need
your
help to
deliver
the
message
that
mass
shootings
must
stop in
this
nation

action
on gun
laws
must be
taken.
Our
collective
voices
will be
heard!
