The following quotation is from Equality NC:

"House Bill 1366, the School Violence Prevention Act, is on the calendar for Tuesday, July 24, in the Senate Judiciary II Committee.

This bipartisan bill would require schools systems to adopt strong policies against bullying and harassment, including harassment against students based on their sexual orientation and gender identity."

End quote.

No child should endure the bullying that we know goes on in the school systems in our nation. It remains incredible to me that a person in the 21st century, youth or adult, would endure harrassment because of who they are.

It rather ties in with the below video someone shared with me the other day. As I have often said, everything we do is about human dignity. In the grand scheme of things, nothing else matters. This segment is worth viewing.
