I am 15 years old, a freshman at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and a survivor of the mass shooting last week. There is no I Survived a School Shooting but My Friends Are Gone Forever handbook. I would laugh and snicker with my friends while we crouched under desks, pretending to be in the midst of a shooting. They are extremely active within our school community, and it’s no surprise that they are the leaders of this movement. But this shooting could mark a turning point for our democracy, the moment when the facades of the truly corrupt politicians crack.
