Parkland students are using their clear backpacks to break the stigma around periods

In wake of the mass shooting that killed 17 people, Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students are now obligated to wear clear, see-through backpacks, and they’re not happy about it.

To demonstrate the students’ disapproval, Parkland Student Delaney Tarr created a Twitter poll, which asked, “Alright, so let’s clear this up. How many of you (specifically Douglas students) think that clear backpacks are a good solution?”

According to the final results, 89 percent of people said “no.”

And while many students, including Sam Fuentes, Kyrah Simon, and Jaclyn Corin, have tweeted their frustrations regarding the safety measure (and rightfully so!), there is some good coming from it.

Just a few hours ago, March For Our Lives co-founder Cameron Kasky posted this picture of his clear backpack, packed with tampons.
