students at New York City\u2019s public schools wore black Friday in memory of the Texas elementary school shooting victims.<\/p>\n<p>For many participants across the five boroughs, the dangers of gun violence felt all too familiar, as they called for stronger school safety measures and mental health resources across the schools.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re no strangers to gun violence and to young people being killed,\u201d said Ilona Nanay, a teacher at a secondary school in the Bronx. \u201cWe\u2019re frustrated that it takes a tragedy to get attention around this because this is very much a part of our every day here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of the guns that are being used in our neighborhood are not purchased legitimately \u2014 ending the sale of weapons isn\u2019t enough,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>The Soundview-based teacher held a discussion with her students today about the shooting in Uvalde, Texas, that killed 19 students and two teachers, and how they can address the rising gun violence in their own neighborhood during the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re just really angry, they feel like the violence here has been normalized, and forgotten and ignored,\u201d Nanay said.<\/p>\n<p>Organizers of the demonstration said participation was widespread \u2014 including Ariela Rothstein, a history teacher in Elmhurst, Queens, who said she hasn\u2019t seen \u201cthis kind of reception before.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\"
