Speakers and musical performers took to the stage Saturday in Washington D.C., New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago and a bunch of smaller cities, smaller towns, and even in countries like Australia, where gun violence isn’t as prevalent.

What isn’t getting as much attention is all the Black students and their elders who are joining in and becoming the backbone of the movement. Just days after Parkland’s own student organizers called for more attention to be placed on gun violence in Black communities, thousands are representing the loss of loved ones and joining in on #NeverAgain.

Today’s events were largely organized by the #NeverAgain movement, which was founded by Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students in Parkland, Florida after a mass shooting at their school killed 17 people and injured a dozen more.

One of the highlights of the D.C. march was Yolanda Renee King, MLK’s oldest granddaughter. The brave nine-year-old took to the stage and gave a short speech, calling for an end to the violence, just like her grandfather marched for over 50 years ago.

"My grandfather had a dream that his four little children will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character," she told the crowd. "I have a dream that enough is enough, and that this should be a gun-free world, period."

Another young Black girl spoke at the D.C. protests. 11-year-old Naomi Wadler stunned the crowd with a speech that resonated with all who want to see something done about mass shootings in America.
