Washington: Thousands of students on Monday marched on Tennessee's state Capitol to protest gun violence after six people, including three young kids, were killed in a Nashville school shooting, the New York Post reported Monday.
"A constant stream of students were seen marching on the Tennessee Capitol in Music City, with WKRN estimating up to 3,000 swarming the steps," said the report, referring to a local television station.
The report added that the rally was organized by March for Our Lives, the student-led group started by survivors of the 2018 Parkland shooting in Florida.
"We will not keep burying our classmates," the group said, cited by the media outlet.
On March 27, a heavily-armed shooter attacked a private elementary school in Nashville, Tennessee, killing six people, including three nine-year-old students, before being fatally shot by police.
