Description
In #NeverAgain (2018), siblings and survivors David and Lauren Hogg explain what happened during the school shooting in Parkland, Florida, in February 2018 and what led them to take a stand. The aftermath of this tragedy differed from that of previous shootings. The students, rather than waiting for politicians to do something, started personally campaigning for change and gun control.
