mood:
Tomorrow is the day of silence, which I hope all of you with an open mind will participate. Wear a badge or make one to explain your pledge to silence. Here's what my badge will say:
DAY OF SILENCE
My deliberate silence echoes the silence faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questiong people and their allies. I beleive that ending the silence is the first step toward fighting prejudice and discrimination. Think about the voices you are NOT hearing today.
In sum, this day of silence is for those who are silenced each day by societal condemnation. I hope you will spread the word and participate tomorrow in one of the biggest national student organized events.
