The Day Of Silence

Tomorrow, Friday April 15th, is the Day Of Silence! On this day, youth all across the country will be taking a vow of silence to bring attention to anti-LGBTQ bullying. This is a great way for LGBTQ teens and allies to join forces to create one big push to end anti-LGBTQ bullying. By taking a vow of silence, supportive youth can have such a powerful message without saying a single word. For more information on the Day of Silence, please visit the Day of Silence website at www.dayofsilence.org.

Taking a vow of silence isn't the only thing youth are doing for the cause. Tomorrow in Lancaster City, the Lancaster Pride Youth Outreach Committee is holding a Silent Rave at Lancaster Square, across from Binns park at 6 pm! Teens from the area will be bringing iPods, MP3 players, etc, along with headphones, and will be dancing to their own music. However, there will be no music playing out loud, giving the appearance that all of these teens are dancing in silence! Anyone is welcome to attend.
