The last day of the month is designated "Pink Shirt Day". How it came to be is stated well in this newspaper article. Basically, a student wore a pink shirt to school and some bullies told him not to wear it again or he would get beat up. Some other students found out about this and brought 50 pink shirts to school the next day. The bullying stop.
Bullying is more common than people think. Some victims end up committing suicide.
While it's great to learn martial arts or to have a bodyguard, it's important to teach "respect for others" and "Human Rights" at school or in the home.
In world where there is considerable personal, cultural and religious diversity, it's important to understand and tolerate differences.
I'm very familiar with racial and religious prejudice myself.
Hopefully, "Pink Shirt Day" can be every day of the year.
With bullying, we're not going to take it anymore.
