National Day of Silence
I already posted this somewhere else..but I feel the message is important enough to post again.
I just wanted to let everyone know that today, April 13, 2005 is the National Day of Silence. It is a day to show support for gay, lesbian, transgender, bisexual, and allies. This is something that I believe in very strongly, so that is why I am participating.
"Please understand my reasons for not speaking today. I am participating in the Day of Silence, a national youth movement protesting the silence faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people and their allies. My deliberate silence echoes that silence, which is caused by harassment, prejudice, and discrimination. I believe that ending the silence is the first step towards fighting these injustices. Think about the voices you are not hearing today."
Spread the word. Maybe someday soon we won't need a day of silence because everyone can be free to be who they are.
