THE YOUNG
ACTIVIST
When thousands of students marched
out of classrooms for the National
School Walkout demonstrations in April,
Havana Chapman-Edwards stood
alone outside herVirginia elementary
school. Chapman-Edwards, 7, says
she was“really sad” when she realized
she was the only student in her school
to participate in the massive protest
against gun violence.The second-
grader says she wanted to honor chil-
dren killed in school shootings.
‘Kids getting
shot—it’s just
heartbreaking
to me because
kids should
just be kids.’
