Day of Silence
Today is the National Day of Silence so in our whole school there is only 30 of us who are observing it. So far it is going well. Everyone thinkis its a bullshit thing, besides that there are a few select names that have come by me today but that is fine.
The Day of Silence is a national student-focused action to raise awareness of the discrimination, harassment and abuse. In effect, the silencing that gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (GLBT) people and their allies face daily.
On the Day of Silence, students, faculty and staff at high schools, colleges and universities across the country take a vow of silence from 8:00am (ours was 7:30) through 5:00pm and distribute "speaking cards" explaining their participation.
