  • An Analysis of Frames, News Coverage, and the March for Our Lives Movement
    Sojourners 265 Marching for Our Lives, Not Yours: An analysis of frames, news coverage, and the March for Our Lives movement Maren Tergesen University of British Columbia Abstract. This article examines youth activists from the “March for Our Lives” move- ment and how their identities impact their framing of gun violence. Analyzing speeches orated at one of the largest gun violence prevention (GVP) protests ever, this article ex- poses how the positionality and lived experience of white and/or affluent actors influences their framing and results in the exclusion of urban gun violence acted upon Black people and people of colour. This article finds that the MFOL movement reinforces racial hier- archies of worthy victims by describing the ‘characters’ and ‘settings’ of gun violence as those consistent with mass or school shootings. Despite the shortcomings of the MFOL movement, this paper suggests that the current issue attention cycle is conducive to con- versations about the intersections of gun violence with race and that activists of colour are the ones leading these conversations. Introduction On February 14th, 2018, fourteen students and three faculty of Marjory Stoneman Dou- glas (MSD) High School were killed in a school shooting in Parkland, Florida. Within three days of the shooting, a group of survivors formed an organization dubbed “Never Again MSD,” planned a nationwide day of protest called “March for Our Lives” (MFOL) and raised $3.7 million dollars for the cause (Andone 2018). These youth activists were widely applauded for their swift action and “for reminding America that the shooting was not a freak accident or a natural disaster but the result of actual human decisions” (Witt 2018).

Amy Jensen National Drama Publications www.nationaldrama.org.uk/journal/ [email protected] www.nationaldrama.org.uk Drama Research Vol. 11 No. 1 April 2020 No More Thoughts and Prayers: What the Performance of Youth Protest in Real-World and Online Communities Might Tell Us About the Future of Theatre for and with Young People in the United States of America. _____________________________________________________________________ Amy Jensen Abstract In this paper I consider where we as drama and theatre educators and youth theatre professionals place our bodies and with whom we build our affective ties. This desire grows out of my observation that institutionally we make more theatre for young audiences than we do theatre with young people acting as co-creators and full collaborators in the United States. Using the youth response to the Parkland, Florida school shooting in 2018 I make the case that our institutions need to reimagine more inclusive relationships with young people in ways that value their capacities as agents of change. Key Words: Youth, Centennials, Change Agents, Co-Creation, Collaboration, Authorship, Ownership, Community, Identity, Affective ties.
