Global Action on Gun Violence filed the “Lawsuit for Survival” on behalf of Joaquin, Manny and Patricia Oliver against the U.S. government for violating human rights law by failing to protect people’s right to live free from gunfire and causing Joaquin’s death in the Parkland high school gun massacre. 

This landmark case, Joaquin Oliver v. USA, asks the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights to request the U.S. to implement strong gun policies to prevent mass shootings and other gun violence.

This panel will feature Manny & Patricia Oliver, as they discuss details of the lawsuit and answer questions about it from the audience.

Please sign the Olivers’ petition urging the IACHR to take their case.
