After the Silence, We Need Strong Voices | Teaching Tolerance

"Last Friday hundreds of thousands of students nationwide observed some sort of vow of silence to bring attention to the injustices taken place." NGLT Day (National Day of Silence-anti-LGBT name-calling, bullying, and harassment) was observed by a small amount of students at North Port High School in North Port, Fl. I first became aware of this evnet on FB. This was a great opportunity for me to show clips from TeachingTolerance.org's video: "A Place at the Table" where the idea that one should be respected and valued for who they are and not for their skin color or sexual preference.
