Dear Emma,
You don’t know who I am, but, I’ve been watching you closely and how you’ve championed what has now become of the March for Our Lives protests. My name is Khane. I to, have lost loved ones to gun violence as a kid, and, stand with you in full spectrum. When I was 21, (I am now 23), I lost one of my previous classmates (and would-be then transgender girlfriend) to gun violence. When she was 17, she was gunned down outside of her apartment complex, just blocks, from her school.
As one of the youngest influential publishers in America, I, am penning this O.D to you Emma to remind you that despite what most may think of the media — we have your back. Nobody should be scared; nobody should have to wonder are they going to go home tonight, nobody.
After witnessing and watching the Marches you and your friends helped organize, I, have decided that gun videos and the like will indefinitely be banned on all of our platforms. As the largest youth-operated and college owned news agency in America, it was the right thing to do. We cannot feed the alt-right movement any longer.
An important lesson I hope you remember, is, that you don’t need to listen to what Trump supporters say. These people are dangerous; outfitted for violence and extremism, and often have nobody at heart except for themselves. These heartless bastards that are out there decrying your movement, can, by all accounts, go to hell.
Stay Strong,
Sultan Khane II
