Students across Minnesota walk out to protest gun violence

Students are walking out of high schools across the state on May 31. It’s a protest of gun violence, one week after a gunman killed 21 people at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas.

Aaliyah Murray organized the statewide school walkout. She is the founder of MN Teen Activists and a junior at Fridley High School. She joined host Cathy Wurzer to talk more.
