To help teens raise their voices in support for the March for Our Lives movement, BBH Los Angeles created a series of posters for [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instagram-10) that can easily be colored, customized and shared across the social platform. The posters were shared by the agency via Instagram Stories so that users on the platform could capture a screenshot and share it in a matter of seconds thanks to Instagram's [built-in coloring tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aicoloringart) within Stories.

Some of the customizable poster templates included messages like "[ABC](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/live-television-streaming) not NRA" and "Am I Next?"

Other initiatives that are being created around the issue of gun control in the United States include awareness-raising fashion collections, video games and even teen summits to encourage both discussion and positive actions to be taken.
