With the string of recent gay-related suicides due to peer harrassment, there emerges from Facebook a bullying awareness Spirit Day. This observance happens tomorrow, October 20, 2010. Everyone who is against bullying, intimidation and bashing is urged to wear purple on this day. This is one way to show our solidarity in this cause. I plan to wear purple and encourage all of you to do likewise.
Now is the time to take a stand and end this disgusting behavior. The sad fact is: kids aren't natural bullies. This behavior is learned at home. Thank you for taking the time to read this! Wear purple, please.
