On April 8, 2015, join your union in taking a stand against bullying, discrimination, homophobia and transphobia in our schools, workplaces and communities by participating in the International Day of Pink.
In the wake of attacks on LGBTQ rights in Arkansas and Indiana, it’s more important than ever to stand up for equality, diversity, and inclusivity in our society.
We hope you can show your support against bullying, discrimination and homophobia and transphobia by observing the day and/or wearing pink.
The Day of Pink began in 2007 as response to a gay student being bullied for wearing pink at his Nova Scotia high school. Two students not only intervened but a few days later, also eventually got the entire school to wear pink shirts in solidarity.
The Day of Pink is a global phenomenon, observed around the world. For more information on the day of pink, please visit http://www.dayofpink.org/.
