Parkland teen: End gun suffering
A national gun control tour made a stop Friday in the Bronx, where survivors of a deadly Florida school shooting appealed for new laws and safe streets.
"All communities are affected differently by gun violence," said David Hogg, 18, who survived the shooting at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School that took the lives of 17 students and teachers. "All of us are here today to end the suffering in all communities."
Hogg, one of the leading voices to emerge from the massacre, met with community leaders and elected officials for a strategy session on the subject.
The event at the Beatstro, a hip hop-themed restaurant, was part of a March For Our Lives tour that has made 80 stops in 25 states.
