In an effort to see stricter gun laws, people young and old across the country participated in the March For Our Lives movement on Mar 24.

New Yorkers gathered on Central Park West and Columbus Ave, according to the New York Post, and listened to the words of Marjory Stoneham Douglas High School student, Megan Bonner, who stated she wants to see change. Earlier this month, she witnessed the horrific violence in her school that left 17 people dead and caused protest throughout the nation.

As proven through this movement, Americans are ready to fight for a change.

Governor Coumo and Mayor de Blasio were among the New Yorkers taking a stand. 
 
T​he mayor's office streamed video footage of the movement on Twitter. 
​
Even ​little marchers had powerful messages. 
​The sentiment was clear​ amongst all those who participated. 
Following the shooting at Marjory Stoneham Douglas High School, students across the U.S. walked out of their classrooms in unified protest of recent school shootings and in support of tighter gun laws earlier this month. The event's organizers, Empower (the youth division of the Women's March) claim nearly 3,000 walkouts were planned in schools around the country. In some local schools—such as one in Sayreville, New Jersey—students will reportedly face two days of suspension if they participate in the protest. The official event hashtag on Twitter can be followed at #ENOUGH (and more about the event can be found here). The mayor and governor joined this event as well. 
To see more footage of the movement, follow the hashtag #MarchForOurLives on Twitter and Instagram. Take a look at Time Out New York's guide about everything you need to know about the event.
