Today is National Day of Silence.
"Day of Silence is a student-led day of action where those who support making anti-LGBT bias unacceptable in schools take a day-long vow of silence to recognize and protect the discrimination and harassment - in effect, the silencing - experienced by LGBT students and their allies. Last year, over 400,000 students in nearly 4,000 K-12 schools, colleges, and universities participated in the Day of Silence."
Wow, this is hard!
