Get the word out!

Day of Silence THIS THURSDAY 4/21!!!

Don't forget to pick up your t-shirt and speaking cards tomorrow @ tutorial in room 201.
Also, ask your teacher ASAP to briefly explain to your class what the Day of Silence is BEFORE Thursday. Encourage your friends to participate and if you can't stay silent for the whole day, be loud and stand up to harassment instead! If you hear someone saying negative things about the Day of Silence or hateful things such as "that's so gay", "fag", "dyke", etc...
TELL THEM TO STOP!

The Day of Silence is a moment to open the conversation on the issue of bullying. Through your participation on the Day of Silence, a message will be sent that bullying and harassment faced by LGBT and ally youth affects you, your school, and the community.
