After Parkland, Chase's friend Emma emailed me this: "Glennon. I need your help. I'm so angry and I need to turn my anger into action. Can you help me plan a rally?" Yes, I said. Then I Googled "How do you plan a rally?" A week later -- with the help of my dear friend Katherine from Moms Demand Action-- hundreds of us rallied at the courthouse. It was tragic and magic -- a gathering of heartbroken warriors rising. Emma asked me to speak. I wrote a letter to her generation -- THE BRAVE ONES -- on behalf of us, their parents.
On March 24, the kids and families of March For Our Lives will take to the streets to demand that their lives and safety become a priority. The time has come to end gun violence and mass shootings in this country. On March 24, we will march to reclaim our humanity, our children, and our freaking soul. Abby and I will be there in DC marching. The kids will lead, we will follow them and amplify them with fierce gratitude, respect, and resolve. It's time. It's happening. If we do not show up now - when our children are being massacred – then when we will show up? March with us in Washington DC or march in your own community.
