We are a first grade class in beautiful California!

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

Everybody wants “diversity” in their schools until they think there are too many black & brown kids. Then they say you’re lowering the quality of the education.

[Auschwitz Memorial @AuschwitzMuseum]

When we look at Auschwitz we see the end of the process. It's important to remember that the Holocaust actually did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed from words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanisation & escalating violence.

[Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand]

Students said enough is enough.
Teachers said enough is enough.
Parents said enough is enough.
Doctors said enough is enough.
The majority of this country has said enough is enough.

It’s time for Congress to finally say enough is enough and pass meaningful gun reform.
