We Say #NeverAgain




We Say #Never Again: Reporting by the Parkland Student Journalists. 2018. Crown Books, a division of Random House, New York, NY.

The student journalists of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School have documented their experiences as they traveled the horrific journey from ordinary high school students to journalists documenting the tragedy that would define their entire high school career.  I suspect that for many of these young adults, this event will define the rest of their lives.

The journalists follow the story from the opening of school on Feb. 14 and through the gruesome events of the day.  We follow the journalists as they struggle with losing friends, becoming the story, and then taking control of the story in the hopes that nobody else will ever suffer the same tragedy.

Included are interviews from the students who have become national activists for gun control, and the information that the students have gathered about how to become an activist and have your voice heard.
