This 7-year-old was the sole student at her school to take part in a national US walkout

This 7-year-old was the sole student at her school to take part in a national US walkout

US news · April 21, 2018

A walkout was held across America to protest continued violence in schools and mark the 19th anniversary of the Columbine High School massacre, but not all students wanted to take part. At her school in Washington DC, Havana Edwards was the only student who participated. She told Teen Vogue she "didn't understand" why her classmates "didn't care" about the protest.

Seven years olds are frightened of reprecussions.

It takes a rare kid to break from that.

Now it is up to her to find out why she was the only one to participate in her school. She has shown her potential to lead the way for her school mates.
