Bullies talk to their Grade 7 selves

A few days ago I posted a video of members of the Illinois Safe Schools Alliance talking to themselves at 40, and now a group of Western University students have joined a movement called Get REAL and have made a video to their seventh-grade selves.

“Get REAL is a university student-driven initiative aimed at eliminating homophobia in creative and dynamic ways. It is open to any and all who wish to stand up and speak out against discrimination. We started in February of 2011 with the aim of running workshops in junior high and high schools, led by university students; this remains our long-term goals. We currently run awareness and advocacy campaigns at Western, as well as wider-reaching initiatives, like this video.”
