Historical BackgroundReturn to Top
The nationwide March for Our Lives was led by students across the country to address the epidemic of mass school shootings and gun violence. Specifically the event grew as a result of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School mass shooting in Parkland, Florida that took 17 lives. The march in Seattle was organized by a student-led group March for Our Lives Seattle. Their Facebook page states “We, the youth of Washington, are infuriated. Infuriated with the lack of action regarding gun violence by the U.S. Congress and by our Washington State legislators….” Rallies in Seattle accompanied a march which started at Cal Anderson Park and ended at Seattle Center near the Key Arena. Specific goals of the march included; universal background checks, banning the sale of semi-automatic rifles, ending the effective ban on federally funded research into gun violence, and raising the legal age to own a gun in Washington State from 18 to 21. This march, recognizing that many of the participants would soon reach eligible voting age, also had a large emphasis on voter registration and encouraged participants to let their voices and votes be heard in upcoming elections. Speakers and performers at the events included Governor Jay Inslee, U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell, Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson and Singer-songwriter Brandi Carlile.

speaking in Cal Anderson Park, Seattle, Washington
March for Our Lives Seattle was organized by Emilia Allard a
17-year old student at Ballard High School and Rhiannon Rasaretnam a 17-year
old student at Tahoma High School. Following the Stoneman Douglas High School
mass-shooting Allard and Rasaretnam teamed up in an attempt to organize other

noticed the significance of this mass shooting as a turning point, where
students needed to step-up and bring awareness to gun violence in order to
attain gun reform legislation.

Signage created by Amplifier artists for the March for
Our Lives , Cal Anderson Park, Seattle, Washington
Text on signs read, from left to right: "Schools, not Warzones
[with an image of a peace sign surrounded by guns]."; "Protect kids, not guns
[with an image of a person with the hands held up wearing a shirt that reads
'Don't Shoot']."; "March for Our Lives[with an image of four individuals
holding hands]."; "Never Again."; "Not one more."; "Ban assault weapons [with
an image of an assault weapon surrounded by flowers]." Amplifier is an
organization that facilitates and funds collaborative media experiments between
contemporary artists and grassroots movements. The goal is to reach a board
audience through individuals who carry the signs created through Amplifiers
collaboration with graphic artists. All of Amplifier’s artwork is free in order
to help inspire change in communities, schools, and through action. Studio
Number One challenges the way people think about their purpose and environment.
Their mission is to change the way people experience media in an urban
landscape. Studio Number One was founded in 2003 by Shepard Fairy. SNO is the
creator of the “Schools, Not Warzones” poster. Micha Bazant is a trans visual
artist who works with social justice movements to reimagine the world. Bazant’s
art work is inspired by struggles to decolonize ourselves from white supremacy,
patriarchy, ableism, and gender binary. For this march in collaboration with
Amplifier and Forward Together, Bazant created the poster “Protect Kids, Not
Guns.” The goal of this poster is to amplify the strong youth-led force
speaking out against gun violence and help shift the story of gun control to
center on Black Leadership. Chanelle Librada Reyes is the designer of the
“Never Again” poster issued by Amplifier. Reyes, a 23 year old, took part in
the Amplifier contest to create posters for the March for Our Lives, which
emphasized the leading roles student activist have taken in the gun reform
debate. Reyes used the words “Never Again” as a representation of the various
times these words have been said following a mass school shooting. Here “Never
Again” shows how Parkland students have used this to generate support for gun
reform. Natalie Dettmer is the graphic designer for the “Not One More” poster
seen at the March for Our Lives. This poster was created in partnership with
Amplifier. Dettmer is a senior art major in the School of Art, Art History
& Design at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Dettmer won a national
poster contest sponsored by Amplifier and Adobe Project 1234 to create posters
for the March for Our Lives. She was one of three designers to win this contest
and was able to attend the March for Our Lives event in Washington, D.C. where
over 15,000 copies of her poster were handed out. Raychelle Duazo is the
designer of the “Ban Assault Weapons” poster that was distributed by Amplifier
for the March for Our Lives. Duazo is a queer femme Filipina-American visual
artist from the Pacific Northwest. Her work focuses on themes of love,
heartbreak, loss, memory, identity and place. Currently, she is an active
member of “The HAND,” a Seattle-based comic artist collective.

age of 15. Pendleton, one week before, had performed at President Obama’s 2nd
inaugural parade. Following her death Pendleton’s friends asked for people to
stand up, speak out and wear orange to bring awareness to gun violence. The
color orange was chosen because it is the color hunters wear to protect
themselves and others from harm in the woods. Orange is a bold and highly
visible color, and supporters derive strength from this bold color in their
efforts to bring about change. June 2nd is National Gun Violence Awareness Day
where supporters wear orange in an effort to end gun violence in America.

members killed in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. On
February 14, 2018, fourteen students and three staff members at the school in
Parkland, Florida, were killed by 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz, a former student
expelled from the school. Local law enforcement received numerous tips about
Cruz’s stated intention to carry out a school shooting over a period of at
least two years. The shooting resulted in Florida legislation that required the
purchasing age for rifles to be raised from 18 to 21, banned bump stocks,
established a process of background checks and waiting periods, and created a
program to arm school employees and school police. A group of students who
survived the attack created Never Again MSD, an activist group that has held
rallies and spurred the March for Our Lives demonstrations.

with one of the victims, and he referred to himself as a “future shooter” when
speaking to a friend several days before the shooting. As Ivanov was able to
purchase an assault weapon at the age of 19, the event prompted gun control
debates centered on banning the sale of assault weapons and enforcing
background checks, among other measures.

experiments between contemporary artists and grassroots movements. The goal is
to reach a broad audience through individuals who carry the signs created
through Amplifiers collaboration with graphic artists. All of Amplifiers
artwork is free in order to help inspire change in communities, schools, and
through action. Micah Bazant is a trans visual artist who works with social
justice movements to reimagine the world. Bazant’s art work is inspired by
struggles to decolonize ourselves from white supremacy, patriarchy, ableism,
and gender binary. For this march in collaboration with Amplifier and Forward
Together, Bazant created the poster “Protect Kids, Not Guns.” The goal of this
poster is to amplify the strong youth-led force speaking out against gun
violence and help shift the story of gun control to center on Black Leadership.

Text on signs read, from left to right: "Good guy with a vote

small men feel big."; "Not one more [with an image of two raised fists and an

media experiments between contemporary artists and grassroots movements. The
goal is to reach a broad audience through individuals who carry the signs
created through Amplifiers collaboration with graphic artists. All of
Amplifiers artwork is free in order to help inspire change in communities,
schools, and through action. Natalie Dettmer is the graphic designer for the
“Not One More” poster seen at the March for Our Lives. This poster was created
in partnership with Amplifier. Dettmer is a senior art major in the School of
Art, Art History & Design at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Dettmer
won a national poster contest sponsored by Amplifier and Adobe Project 1234 to
create posters for the March for Our Lives. She was one of three designers to
win this contest and was able to attend the March for Our Lives event in
Washington, D.C. where over 15,000 copies of her poster were handed out. In
2013 Hadiya Pendleton was shot and killed in Chicago at the age of 15.
Pendleton, one week before, had performed at President Obama’s 2nd inaugural
parade. Following her death Pendleton’s friends asked for people to stand up,
speak out and wear orange to bring awareness to gun violence. The color orange
was chosen because it is the color hunters wear to protect themselves and
others from harm in the woods. Orange is a bold and highly visible color, and
supporters derive strength from this bold color in their efforts to bring about
change. June 2nd is National Gun Violence Awareness Day where supporters wear
orange in an effort to end gun violence in America.
