(slow cinematic music)
- We're the first generation to grow up
with code red drills.
- We're from Parkland,
from Chicago, from all across America.
And we've had enough.
- We didn't sign up for war,
we're just students,
we just want to go to class and get our education.
- My name is Ke'Shon and I am the President
of Tech student council.
After college I plan on being an architect.
- I'm a proud Mom of Ke'Shon
He's very outspoken and determined
that's what I love about him.
- My name is Kayla
and I'm in the 11th grade.
- I'm Liv, Kayla and I have been friends
since 9th grade.
I love skateboarding and I love the beach.
- I make a lot of jokes, they're like really cheesy jokes.
And Olivia laughs at everything.
- We play a lot of card games here.
I think last time you on you got lucky.
My brother Randall wanted to be a good musician
and get his message out there, you know
he tried to find the best
in whatever he did.
- My parents surprised me in the kitchen
with like birthday banners and presents
on the table and stuff.
- It just felt like a great day.
There's everybody with their teddy bears
and chocolates and their balloons.
It was a happy environment.
- After lunch time,
we went into the freshman building 'cause that's
where my AP Psychology class is and we
were just waiting for our teachers.
And then she finally came and unlocked the door.
- I had missed a math test that I was going
to make up.
The building that I was in was parallel
to the freshman building.
I was sitting right by the window taking a test.
And all of a sudden I heard like a cracking of a whip.
- [Anchor] I just got a horrific piece of news,
authorities are responding to reports
of an active shooter at a high school.
- It was like a loud popping noises,
like a firework.
- I grew up in an area,
you hear gun shots, you hear helicopters and it's crazy.
Makes you like afraid to go outside but at the same token
you still have to live your life.
And just pray every day that you make it back home safe.
- My brother had left out that night
to take his girlfriend to the bus stop
so she could get home safely and
as he was coming back he seen his friends
and as they started to walk back there was a shoot out.
- Nice meeting you.
- Now is the time to come together,
be bold, be courageous,
the nation's counting on you.
- [Anchor] We don't have
a number of possible injuries or fatalities.
- My Mom called me on the phone
and she starts whispering to me, she goes
"Just let me know you're safe,
you're safe" and I turned to my friend
and I said this is real.
And these girl starts hysterical crying
I'm trying to calm everybody down.
- [Anchor] Multiple swat teams are inside.
- Kayla calls me and she goes, "Oh my gosh are you okay
are you out?"
And I said no and I could just
tell her voice was like oh.
- [Anchor] At least 14 people injured,
there are fatalities.
- You hear like three shots
and we all dropped down
and we all run to the opposite side of the classroom.
We were all squished behind the desk.
- [Anchor] Another bloody weekend
in the windy city leaving one man dead
and another 18 wounded.
- As soon as he turned the corner,
he was caught in the gun fire.
He got shot nine times.
- [Anchor] An active shooter situation
in south Florida right now.
- I was in the closet for two,
maybe two and a half hours.
I asked, please
don't make noise because I knew
it was crucial that we were silent.
- He shot through the glass in the door
and he shot four kids
in my class and you could
see glass on the floor.
I heard their cries and wheezing.
There were people crying,
there were people calling their Moms.
And some people were shushing
the victims who were shot.
- The Auntie called and was like where is Puda,
Puda was like Randall's nickname, where is Puda,
and we like he in the room.
And she was like go check in the room
'cause I'm looking at him
on the ground right now as we speak.
When we got to the scene it was him
on the ground dead.
No one wants to see their child dead on the ground
in a pool of blood.
- You also have to watch our backs,
it's just a fear factor
for everyone living inside of Chicago.
I'm just here letting everyone know the daily
struggle that we have to go through.
- There will be counselors there,
there will be food there.
Nobody on this trip has to suffer through anything.
And that's really important that you understand that.
- You never think it's gonna be your school,
you never think it's gonna be your best friend's school.
- When is enough enough you know.
- So the more Congress
and politicians don't do anything about it,
is gonna be the more rallies that we're gonna have,
the more angry people are gonna get.
'Cause we're tired of seeing this.
- This is the beginning of the end
and from here we fight.
It is time to fight for our lives.
So we will register, we'll educate and
then when it comes down to it, we will vote.
- Fight, fight, fight.
- I was 13 years old when I lost
my brother Randall.
No one should ever have to go through losing a loved one.
- I hope for all future generations
that they never have to go through anything like
we went through.
