“I didn’t think it would go viral at all,” she told People of the reaction to her speech. “It went so far and so fast. I’ve got celebrities tweeting about me. I wanted people to feel what I was feeling.” Who is this 18-year-old activist who has captured the world’s attention and is changing the way even the United States’s most influential figures talk about gun violence prevention? Learn more about Gonzalez below. Emma Gonzalez led the life of a typical high school senior. But after speaking out in an 11-minute speech at an anti-gun rally in Fort Lauderdale just two days after a former Marjory Stoneman Douglas student fatally shot 17 of her peers, she’s quickly become one of the country’s most visible gun violence prevention activists at just 18 years old.
