I was on campus when Mr. Kirk was attacked. I did not want him at UVU to begin with, but I do mourn the fact that he was killed.
However, I am transgender. I do not believe he would have mourned my death if I had been shot instead.
The media has largely reflected this event as though he was a perfect man. In reality, many students did not want him at UVU because of his hateful politics and debates.
Please do not treat this event as though there is no nuance. If a permanent memorial is created on campus, please allow it to show all sides of the story, instead of immortalizing one point of view.
Elias supported: UVU's Monuments Should Align With Its Commitment to Inclusion and Belonging
My son is going to be 3 this year, and my biggest fear is sending him to school. My mother has been a teacher for longe than i’ve been alive, and for years now i’ve been terrified of receiving the call that she was killed in her school. I myself was involved in a school shooting threat when I was in high school. We need change. we need to make school a safe place again, for students and teachers.
Aliah supported: Reform Gun Laws to Protect Our Children
I should not be crying and terrified to send my
children to school. You don’t need guns, we need our children to live.
Laurel supported: Reform Gun Laws to Protect Our ChildrenI homeschool and gun violence is the primary reason why. I know I'm in a privileged position to be able to choose to educate my children at home. No one should have to choose between their children's education and safety.
Sarah supported: Reform Gun Laws to Protect Our ChildrenI’m a student with epilepsy, and I need my phone in order to have my medical ID on me at all times. Also, what happens when I can’t say goodbye to my parents in a school shooting?
Ella supported: End the Texas School Phone Bani’m a student in texas, and this ban is not fair. i actually focus better listening to music on my phone, and i use my phone to get help with school stuff when teachers aren’t available. phones aren’t just distractions they’re tools, and they keep us safe during emergencies. instead of wasting money on this, put it toward real safety like preventing weapons in school or helping students with mental health. this law doesn’t protect us it just takes away what helps us.
Jennifer supported: End the Texas School Phone BanYou’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
