June 11 – After the Uvalde mass shooting in Texas, March For Our Lives, a youth-led gun control organization held a protest on the steps of the Capital. The poster board shown in the photo had a quote from a speech made by Matthew McConaughey about a student, nine-year-old Maite Rodriguez, who died in the Uvalde shooting. This quote was incredibly impactful due to the meaning behind it, when police searched the school, everything was so gory that the only way they could identify her was by her green shoes with a heart on the right foot. It was later explained in the speech that Maite wore the shoes because of her extreme love for nature. – Web Editor Izzy Krauss
