Need a Bus to the “Delaware March Against Gun Violence” on March 24th?

The Human Rights Task Force at the First Unitarian Church is organizing a bus to downtown Wilmington for the March for Our Lives event on March 24. March for Our Lives is created by, inspired by and led by students across the country who will no longer risk their lives waiting for someone else to take action to stop the epidemic of mass school shootings that has become all too familiar.

March for Our Lives is created by, inspired by and led by students across the country who will no longer risk their lives waiting for someone else to take action to stop the epidemic of mass school shootings that has become all too familiar. In the tragic wake of seventeen lives brutally cut short in Florida, politicians are telling us that now is not the time to talk about guns. March for Our Lives believes the time is now.
