Stand Up!!

I thought the video on homophobic bullying was an excellent way to show the public how peace can be created just by the courage of one single person. When the boy is made fun of and given bad looks for his sexuality he becomes a loner and does not want to approach anyone. This can be detrimental to a young teenager trying to find his way through life. It wasn't until the one boy in the green shirt stood up and took the other guys hand and proved to everyone that homosexuality shouldn't be anything to be ashamed of. Everyone should have the right to be who they want to be. The video shows that it doesn't take an entire army but just one single person to decide to take a stand in something that is wrong and it change the mind of millions.

  1. I agree with what you said about how sad it is that people can't just accept who other people are. Its rough to see a kid like this being made fun of alot and its true how 1 person can make a difference among others

  2. I completely agree with you because it shouldn't be something that a person should have to be ashamed of and it's astonishing to see how one person can have such a big impact on the situation.

  3. I am agree that this is a way to demonstrate peace between humans, people have the right to do what they want as long as it does not hurt any body else. People have the right to have their preferences.
