The March For Our Lives is being organized by Never Again MSD, the student-run organization that sprang up in response to the recent shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. In the wake of that tragedy, much attention has been paid to the passion, social media savvy, and political skill of the teenage survivors, who have rallied together and emerged as the face of the Never Again MSD movement, inspiring gun control proponents across the nation. AwesomenessTV, which appeals to tween and teen viewers and works with a network of influential creators, knows well the power and resolve of Generation Z. Now, its partners are uniting to support another group of inspiring youngsters.

#NeverAgain: A Live Concert Event will be available via YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook.
