Today's Prompt: The "Never Again" Movement
Please devote some time to reading the article "Urgency and Frustration: The Never Again Movement Gathers Momentum," which appears in New Yorker magazine.
- When you have finished reading the article, please conduct more research into the "Never Again" movement started in the wake of the recent school shooting in Parkland, Florida. One way of doing this is to click on links provided in the article, but you can also conduct an internet search.
- Do you think that this student-led movement could lead to changes in the regulation of firearms in America? Do you think that it could lead to changes in public opinion? Write down your thoughts about these questions in a paragraph or two. You will not need to turn this in, but you may be asked to read from it in a class discussion of the questions once everyone has finished.
