This holiday season we are celebrating by sharing some organizations we are passionate about and our initiatives to promote them. For Day 5, we are shining a light on @youthoverguns: Youth Over Guns is a youth-led advocacy group, formed by students of color shortly after the mass shooting in Parkland, Florida. Our founding members include high school and college students from across New York City. In the aftermath of the Parkland shooting and the national outcry for gun violence prevention solutions, we demanded that leaders and other stakeholders invest resources into local, grassroots gun violence prevention organizations that work towards reducing gun violence in communities of color. We mobilized and organized and in June of 2018, we marched with thousands of New Yorkers across the Brooklyn Bridge to raise awareness. Our Cause Ambassador Luis Hernandez @jona.nyc is the Co-Founder and Executive Director of Youth Over Guns Our Kamala “Waving” Unisex Adult & Kids T-Shirts & Hoodies created by Stacy’s son @dylanreidigel are in support of this organization as well as past sold-out collections. #BOYMEETSGIRL #BOYMEETSGIRLUSA #YouthOverGuns . . . . . . . . . . #protest #activist #activism #nyc #ny #newyork #youthoverguns #kamlaharris #giveback #donate #charity #cause #forgood #dogood (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/boymeetsgirlusa/p/CXT31dxOfd1/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
