Under new name, supportive schools group will help young LGBTQ+ people Glisten

Today is Day of Silence at many schools across the US, at least at those with the courage to ignore Trump's threats against DEI and against the lgbtq community. On this day, many students and teachers take a vow of silence in solidarity with lgbtq people throughout the world who are silenced by homophobic and transphobic laws, threats and violence, and to help educate their peers about homophobia and transphobia.

I am proud to say that scores of my students (both gay and straight) participated today by wearing stickers and, in many cases, remaining silent for the entire morning.

Am 11. 04 ist #DayofSilence. An diesem Tag gedenken Schüler*innen queeren Mitschüler*innen, die #Mobbing und #Diskriminierung ausgesetzt sind. In Deutschland ist dieser Tag allerdings kaum bekannt.

This year, for the first time, the “Day of Silence” – a yearly event where students take a vow of silence to symbolize the impact of homophobia and the LGBTQ voices that are marginalized by bullying – morphed into a day of action called the “Day of (NO) Silence.”
