Local Students Walkout in Support of Shooting Victims

Ryan Finnerty

Wednesday was National Walkout Day at schools across the country. Thousands of students left class at 10 AM to remember the recent victims of a shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Students here in Hawaii organized events at their own schools. University Laboratory School students organized a walkout at their school and shared their motives and hopes for the event with HPR's The Conversation.

Catherine Cruz is the host of The Conversation. Contact her at ccruz@hawaiipublicradio.org.
