Pink Shirt day began in Canada in 2007, when a boy in Canada wore a pink shirt and was bullied. Suddenly 2 students had enough and stood up for him, and to stop homophobic bullying. Pink Shirt day is a day when people wear a pink shirt to symbolise a stand against bullying. The 2 students' names were, David Shepherd and Travis Price. Also the boy’s name who got bullied was Chuck McNeill. Tens of thousands of New Zealanders will wear their pink shirts with pride, spreading kindness around the world. Wearing a pink shirt can send a powerful message by thinking that there is no such thing as boy colors and girl colors.
Stop the bullying and speak up for others.
