Everything You Need to Know for the March for Our Lives Gun Violence Protests

Parkland shooting survivors Emma Gonzalez, Cameron Kasky, and Jaclyn Cori appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to explain how they’re organizing the march.

Along with Parkland students, plenty of famous faces from Hollywood will join the march. Ariana Grande, Jennifer Hudson, Miley Cyrus, and Demi Lovato are among the singers who will be in attendance. “They’re gonna be standing there with us and marching with us and they’re some of the few people that are really coming out and stepping up with us,” David Hogg, a Parkland shooting survivor, told CNN.

George and Amal Clooney and Jimmy Fallon previously announced that they’d be joining the march, as well as donating large sums to the cause.

The satellite marches will also have a celebrity presence, particularly the one in Los Angeles. Amy Schumer, Yara Shahidi, Connie Britton, and Olivia Wilde will all take the stage at March for Our Lives in L.A., and Charlie Puth will perform.

“We are witnessing our generation, actively come together, in a global conversation, demanding action from lawmakers to invest in and assure our right to safety,” Shahidi said in a statement“I am inspired and motivated to continue to contribute through action, and am honored to be joining March For Our Lives, in Los Angeles this Saturday, to stand in solidarity with my peers from across the country, to demand an end to the gun violence plaguing our schools and our communities, once and for all.”

March for Our Lives comes 10 days after the national school walkout on March 14, which saw thousands of students leaving school for 17 minutes to remember the victims of the Parkland shooting and push for gun control. The event was wildly successful, with powerful images and videos flooding in from every part of the country, protesting Congress’s inaction after yet another school shooting.
