 will have speakers at Marin at 1:00. Then everyone marches back to San 
 Francisco Golden Gate Bridge Plaza for large group photo. \n\nHISTORY: 
 Orange is the color that Hadiya Pendleton’s friends wore in her honor 
 when she was shot and killed in Chicago at the age of 15 — just one week 
 after performing at President Obama’s 2nd inaugural parade in 2013. After 
 her death, they asked us to stand up, speak out, and Wear Orange to raise 
 awareness about gun violence.\n\nSince then orange has been the defining 
 color of the gun violence prevention movement. New York gun violence 
 prevention advocate Erica Ford spearheaded orange as the color of peace 
 through her work with her organization, Life Camp, Inc. Whether it’s worn 
 by students in Montana, activists in New York, or Hadiya’s loved ones in 
 Chicago, the color orange honors the more than 100 lives cut short and the 
 hundreds more wounded by gun violence everyday.\n\nOur movement gains 
 momentum when gun sense activists come together to fight for a future free 
 from gun violence. Wear Orange Weekend is an opportunity for us to show the 
 country just how powerful we are.\n\nNational Gun Violence Awareness Day is 
 the first Friday in June, which will be June 7 in 2019.\n\nUse link for
