About this ebook

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From two survivors of the Parkland, Florida, shooting comes a declaration for our times, and an in-depth look at the making of the #NeverAgain movement.
 
On February 14, 2018, seventeen-year-old David Hogg and his fourteen-year-old sister, Lauren, went to school at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, like any normal Wednesday. That day, of course, the world changed. By the next morning, with seventeen classmates and faculty dead, they had joined the leadership of a movement to save their own lives, and the lives of all other young people in America. It's a leadership position they did not seek, and did not want--but events gave them no choice.

The morning after the massacre, David Hogg told CNN: "We're children. You guys are the adults. You need to take some action and play a role. Work together. Get over your politics and get something done."

This book is a manifesto for the movement begun that day, one that has already changed America--with voices of a new generation that are speaking truth to power, and are determined to succeed where their elders have failed. With moral force and clarity, a new generation has made it clear that problems previously deemed unsolvable due to powerful lobbies and political cowardice will be theirs to solve. Born just after Columbine and raised amid seemingly endless war and routine active shooter drills, this generation now says, Enough. This book is their statement of purpose, and the story of their lives. It is the essential guide to the #NeverAgain movement.

Counterculture Vs. Cancel Culture. The Battle Against Cancel Culture. A Debate In My Viewpoint. I know Counterculture from the internet. I will be saying no to Cancel Culture. I want to support the Counterculture and Hippie Movements that I have researched on the internet a while back then. Understand these topics in my head. I will never be a part of Cancel Culture. I won't join the Cancel Culture Movement. I'm not having any of this Cancel Culture excuses!! People! It will ruin everything about families, young people, political views, and society as a whole. I am not comparing Neoliberalism or Counterculture to Cancel Culture. They are pretty much their own independent ideological views of the world at large. Cancel Culture in my mindset and imagination: "They are trying to reclaim the power from older generations had. As in steal power and rights of the grown-ups and older generations alike! Having all the power for yourself, will do more harm than good.
