Today is National (No) Silence Day! We're sharing empowering quotes from visionaries who paved the way for change. Their courage and wisdom remind us of the importance of speaking up for equality and inclusion. Copy and paste link below for more info! https://www.glsen.org/dayofnosilence - History of Day of (No) Silence: Started in the mid 90’s by two college students, Day of Silence has expanded to reach hundreds of thousands of students each year. Every April, students would go through the school day without speaking, ending the day with Breaking the Silence rallies to bring attention to ways their schools and communities can become more inclusive. 2024 Day of (No) Silence: With more than 800 anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced last year, we must Rise Up and Take Action. GLSEN’s Day of NO Silence is a nationally-recognized student-led demonstration where LGBTQ+ students and allies all around the country—and the world— protest the harmful effects of harassment and discrimination of LGBTQ+ people in schools. Silent Option: For those who may not feel safe or comfortable speaking out, the option of participating in a silent protest remains available. This ensures that everyone can contribute to the movement in a manner that aligns with their comfort level. #NationalNoSilenceDay #RiseUpTakeAction #GSLEN

As the moon says to the sun during an eclipse, 'You light up my world, just like the diversity in our community lights up pflag Canada Durham Region.' Let's keep shining together! #EclipseSolar2024 Make sure you watch the eclipse safely! Learn about safe practices for observing a solar eclipse. To prevent serious eye damage, always avoid direct eye contact with the Sun, especially during a solar eclipse. Use special glasses with eclipse filters, as regular sunglasses won't offer sufficient protection. Prioritize your eye health while enjoying the beautiful spectacle of a solar eclipse.

International Asexuality Day (IAD) will take place on April 6th. IAD is a coordinated worldwide campaign promoting the ace umbrella, including demisexual, grey-asexual and other ace identities. The four themes of IAD are: Advocacy Celebration Education Solidarity These themes highlight the aims of recognizing and enabling the work that the international ace community and organizations do, particularly in non-Western and/or non-English speaking countries. We encourage anyone who identifies under the ace umbrella to participate in IAD, particularly but not exclusively in non-anglophone and/or non-Western countries. Participation could be as simple as sharing a post on social media, but there are also organizations all over the world who are holding events, running campaigns and supporting causes.
