In 95% of public schools in the United States children practice lockdown drills in case a gunman attacks. March For Our Lives created a film to force every parent and politician in the country to confront this terrifying and often-overlooked effect of gun culture. There are no tricks. Nothing is exaggerated. March For Our Lives simply presented the truth and asked a real student to take the lessons she learned at school and share them with adults in a real workplace. The film earned 50 million+ views in a month. It was shared by several presidential candidates and was played during a hearing in Congress.
