“To students and children across the nation and world: do not allow your actions to be oppressed. Do not allow your voice to remain silent. Speak for what you believe in and shout it to the ones who try to knock you down. We are the future and we, together, are the change.”— Adam Alhanti, twitter.com
“The political scene in our country has never been so marked by student action, and it is not reckless to predict that this is no aberrant phenomenon but a fundamental shift in social patterns that will distinguish this era from others past.”— Bernice King, twitter.com
“A bunch of nasty, gormless, nihilist, idealess fucks assuming a bunch of kids acting on principle with compassion and sincerity are cynical fakers certainly is telling I guess.”— Richard Lawson, twitter.com
“I am so thankful to be in this moment with all of you. It is the time we stand shoulder to shoulder, with every human being. We are building a society filled with love, support, compassion, and healing. I hear you. I trust you. I believe you. I love you.”— Jessica Chastain, twitter.com
