I've wondered myself. Of course, it's people on the right side of both decency and history, and equally of course we can depend on Fox to recast decency as corruption.

But I think we all know costs aren't being covered by the kids' lunch allowances. I've read about a couple of cities' kids setting up GoFundMes for their marches, and there'll have been many donations through other routes.

Here's another: Who's helping organize them, in DC, other cities, over all? The energy and commitment are coming from these wonderful high school students, but organizing events of this size is strictly a job for grown-up experts.

Btw, Stoneman Douglas's own drama club and student choir are performing now. Not "celebrities," but more students from Stoneman participating on stage in an event of their lifetimes. They're GOOD!
