Kim Kardashian and husband Kanye West gave their 4-year-old daughter North West a unique civics lesson on Saturday.

The 37-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star and the 40-year-old rapper traveled with the child to Washington D.C. and brought her to the March for Our Lives anti-gun violence and pro-gun control protest. Teenagers organized the rally and hundreds of similar protests after the February 14 massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida, which killed 17 students and staff members.

"I'm so happy I got to share this moment with these two ❤️❤️," Kim wrote on Twitter, alongside a photo of Kanye and their daughter. "I hope North remembers this forever."

She also shared the pic on Instagram Stories, where she also posted videos from the rally, which featured speeches from students, including survivors of the Florida high school shooting, and performances from the likes of Miley CyrusDemi Lovato and Jennifer Hudson.

"What an amazing day yesterday to take my daughter to Washington DC to see our future leaders speak," Kim later said on Instagram. "Having my daughter march along-side her grandfather and parents was a day I hope she remembers forever. I know that the younger generation will vote to change these gun laws that so desperately need to be changed. Hearing these stories yesterday and meeting so many families affected by gun violence was heart breaking and I hope when it comes time to vote we all step up and vote to protect our children."
