What is Spirit Day?

(via gladd)Millions of Americans wear purple on Spirit Day as a sign of support for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth and to speak out against bullying. Spirit Day was started in 2010 by teenager Brittany McMillan as a response to the young people who had taken their own lives. Observed annually on October 20, individuals, schools, organizations, corporations, media professionals and celebrities wear purple, which symbolizes spirit on the rainbow flag. Getting involved is easy -- participants are asked to simply "go purple" on October 20 as we work to create a world in which LGBT teens are celebrated and accepted for who they are.

~As some of you might know, This is our first year in any sort of real school situation and I must admit the issues around bullying are baffling and terrifying to say the least. It seems such like an incredible waste of time that creates tremendous loss, yet it is real and grows. The bullying seems to exist in an ( or what should be)altered state of reality where logic is incommunicable and the pack mentality rules. I believe LBGT are the hardest hit by these malicious packs, but all are impacted by the negativity; It darkens our cultural soul. Somehow we as a society need to eradicate the ignorance and cruelty that pervades our culture and engulfs our children.
