Day of Silence is for all GLBT who have been discriminated in any way....you are silent for the whole day out of protest. It has been going on for some years now and it is a great way to protest. This year it is on April 13th. You carry a card with this on it:
From the Day of Silence "Speaking Cards":
"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 toward fighting these injustices. Think about the voices you are not hearing today. What are you going to do to end the silence?"
Guys this is something very close to my heart, i wanted to post this so everyone could have a chance to hear about it, for more information please visit www.dayofsilence.org
