This video was taken at 9:56 am on March 14, 2018 at duPont Manual High School in Louisville, KY by Liz Palmer, a teacher at the school.

Students at duPont Manual walked out in honor of the victims of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. The students also honored the more local victims of the shooting at Marshall County High School, also in Kentucky.

The participants, representing the majority of student body, walked out in perfect silence at 9:50 am and returned to class at roughly 10:25. They held a full minute of silence for each student lost.

A small group of students faced the rest of the student body, individually holding blown up pictures of the slain students during the minute that student was memorialized.

The school's administration made clear that they were neither in support or opposition to the walkout and made a point not to assist with the planning of the event, though they arranged a police presence, placed staff around the perimeter, and agreed not to punish participants.

Students choosing not to participate continued to receive instruction from their teachers during the walkout.
