"We're in the middle of something that has happened for years. This is a cycle that has happened. It happened with the Indian Removal Act and the Trail of Tears, this happened with Nazi Germany, this happened with the transatlantic slave trade. We are repeating history, and we have the power to stop the cycle and do something about it," said high school junior Ava Pributsky.
