Some Bay Area students joined the National School Walkout today to mark the 19th anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting to demand stricter gun laws and an end to gun violence.
Student activists in the Bay Area and around the country have been pushing for gun control measures since the February mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, that left 17 dead.
Today's action follows a nationwide school walkout protest against gun violence and the "March for Our Lives" protests, both held in March.
"No more silence, end gun violence," was one chant heard outside Encinal Junior and Senior High School in Alameda.
