Manhattan Elementary Students Sing 'Put a Little Love in Your Heart'

  • 6 years ago

Elementary school kids in Manhattan gathered together on March 14, a day of nationwide student protests for gun reform, to sing Jackie DeShannon’s 1969 song, “Put a Little Love in Your Heart.”Students across the US and internationally staged a walkout on Wednesday in remembrance of the victims of the school shooting in Parkland, Florida, which happened one month previously. At 10am local time in each US location, students walked out of their classrooms and stood in silence for 17 minutes in honor of the 17 people who lost their lives at Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on February 14. The walkout was organized by Women’s March Youth Empower. Credit: Victoria Grantham via Storyful
