![]() We Say #NEVERAGAIN is a first hand account of the horrific school shooting at Marjoury Stoneman Douglas High School on February 14, 2018. We Say #NEVERAGAIN describes not only the day of the shooting from the perspective of different students, but also shares deep insights on the beggining of the #NEVERAGAIN movement. As we learn different aspects of the shooting itself and the affects on others in each chapter, we learn about the different impacts the students of Parkland are making in journalism and activism. We Say #NEVERAGAIN is written by the Parkland Student Journalists and tells the story of the students of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in a personal voice that is not only interesting, but fascinating and important. I first saw this book at Target one day after I attended a panel with Parkland students held at the Neutral Zone entitled “Honoring Parkland and Chicago Youth”. After attending this event I knew I wanted to get more involved in activism against gun violence. This book seemed like a good place to start and I’m very glad I read it because the different perspectives gave me a deeper understanding on the issue and motivated me to get more involved in this movement. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is silently interested in learning about the issues surrounding gun violence in different communities or anyone who is interested in journalism because the book talks a lot about ethical journalism. -CK, grade 10
