No Kings Protest in Ferndale, MI.

ACOG makes this simple and clear.

We marched today in Oxford, MI. To remember Justin, Hana, Madisyn, and Tate. And to express urgency and outrage at the gun violence harming our children in so many ways. So impressed with the teens and young adults leading the charge! #wearorange #endgunviolencemichigan #nofuturewithouttoday

Happy New Year from a science-loving progressive coupla Michiganders!
