On Saturday, survivors of last month’s school shooting in Parkland, Florida, met with high school students from Chicago to discuss gun violence and its effects on their communities, coming together to “share stories, ideologies, and pizza,” according to Parkland survivor and student activist Emma González.

“Those who face gun violence on a level that we have only just glimpsed from our gated communities have never had their voices heard in their entire lives the way that we have in these few weeks alone,” González tweeted.

“The platform us Parkland Students have established is to be shared with every person, black or white, gay or straight, religious or not, who has experienced gun violence, and hand in hand, side by side, We Will Make This Change Together,” she also wrote on Twitter.
