"I am unwilling to let what happened to my family, to my babies, on one of the most celebrated national holidays, a day that represents freedom, be another thought and prayer," Abby Brosio, who survived the mass shooting July 4 in Highland Park, Illinois, told the crowd. “I hope you’re uncomfortable. Change is uncomfortable. Let’s begin."
The demonstration, which drew about 200 people, is part of a broader call for action after mass killings, including the attack in Highland Park, where seven people were killed after a gunman climbed to a rooftop in the wealthy Chicago suburb and fired on those watching a Fourth of July parade. Families from Uvalde, Texas – where a gunman killed 21 people at an elementary school in May – spoke to the crowd as well.
