If you are Canadian, you'll know what this event is.
Every year, February 25th is Pink Shirt Day. You might be wondering what Pink Shirt Day is and why it is such a big deal. The story goes like this:
One day, in a school in Nova Scotia, Canada, a boy was bullied for wearing a pink shirt. However, two kids who saw it happen decided to take a stand. They told all their friends to wear pink shirts the next day. Those friends told their friends, and the next day, everyone in the school, including the teachers, was wearing pink shirts. They stood up the bully, and since then, February 25th has been Pink Shirt/Anti-bullying day for every province in Canada.
I know few of us here are Canadian, but I'd like to bring this event into the culture of anti-evil societies in AJ.
On February 25th, feel free to meet at Cerise's den at4:00 AJSWS time to participate in the event.
