Linda Harvey, an anti-LGBT extremist, said some ridiculous things about Day of Silence and LGBT people. So, naturally we had to fact-check her.

And show off just a small fraction of the powerful, courageous, and world-changing people who are using Day of Silence to take a stand and make a difference.

Whose side are you on? 

[GLSEN]

So many beautiful people working to end the silence that LGBTQ youth face.

What are you doing to end the silence? Grab a pic & take a selfie!

This is what Washington-Lee High School’s GSA is doing to prepare for the Day of Silence.

What are you doing? Let us know in a reblog or leave a comment on YouTube! 

Better yet, make your own video response!

Bayli Silberstein, an 8th grade student in Florida, has been trying for a year to create a Gay-Straight Alliance, a student-led club to combat the name-calling and bullying she and her friends face at school. But in an underhanded attempt to stop Bayli from forming the Gay-Straight Alliance, the school board is considering banning ALL extracurricular clubs. 

The school board will be discussing the proposal on February 18, so we’ve got to act now to mobilize a public response. Join us in calling on the Lake County School Board to stop the assault on students’ freedom of expression.

The Gay-Straight Alliance at my school is preparing for GLSEN’s Ally Week, which starts on Monday. We made a video to introduce the week to the rest of the school. I’m quite proud of it, so I thought I’d share it - also features an appearance by yours truly, so enjoy and spread it around!

Great work! Love it!
