I never got a chance to post this piece I wrote in the first two days after the Valentine's Day tragedy for Politico Magazine, but I hope you find it worth a look: Will the Parkland kids change the gun debate?
My first piece for Vanity Fair should be up soon. I have this page with links all my stories on Douglas High, Columbine and school shootings.
