Day of Silence

[Rikugurl]

Yea...so I have to shut my big mouth for 9 hours today.

At least I get this cool paper I can hand out to people. ^_^ I think this is great for other people to see. I'm glad I devoted my time to this movement.

Here is the message on the paper:

Please understand my reasons for not speaking toady. I am participating in the Day of Silence, a national youth movement protesting the silence faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people and their allies. My deliberate silence echoes that silence, which is caused by harrassment, prejudice and discrimination. I believe that ending the silence is the first step towards fighting these injustices. Think about the voices you are not hearing today. What are you going to do to end the silence.
