Chants from March for Our Lives, June 11, 2022

Here are chants from some of the 400+ protests for gun control that took place in conjunction with March for Our Lives on June 11, 2022. I had heard most of the chants previously, in protests following the Uvalde massacre; they are transcribed here. I’ve transcribed below the chants I’m either hearing for the first time or are in different rhythms from previous versions.

When there is a call-and-response pattern, the caller’s text is below the staff; the crowd’s text is above the staff. Rhythms are in cut time unless otherwise indicated.

“Stop the violence,” “Put the guns down,” “Gun violence has got to go”
