Kai says while some might feel comfort to have more police officers at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas, he does not. He says it's intimidating & that black students will face most of the consequences of an overmilitarized predominantly white school.
Tyah-Amoy a Marjorie Stoneman Douglas student said conversations about gun violence have to include police violence. She asked, the same people who showed up for #MarchForOurLives--will they show up for #StephonClark? #AltonSterling? #SandraBland?
About 8 media organizations covered this press conference-- most of them local. One student said the school's black students are not being represented. She peered into the news cameras and said, "Well here we are. Do you see us?" #MSDStrong @wlrn
