Actor George Clooney has penned a letter to the students of the Parkland, Florida high school where a deadly mass shooting claimed the lives of 17 people.
The student journalists from Eagle Eye, the newspaper of Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school, where the shooting happened in February, had written to Clooney and his wife Amal for an interview.
In the letter published in The Guardian, Clooney said their advocacy for gun control makes him "proud of my country again."
He, however, declined their request for an interview, saying "young people are taking it to the adults and that has been your most effective tool."
