Broadway Youth Center is participating in GLSEN’s Day of Silence, a national youth movement that highlights the silencing and erasure of LGBTQ+ people in schools. Over 4 in 6 LGBTQ+ students do not see positive LGBTQ+ representation in their curriculum, nearly 9 in 10 experience harassment or assault, and almost a third miss school because they feel unsafe or uncomfortable.
Together we can break the silence by making schools more inclusive for all. Visit glsen.org/DayOfSilence to learn more.

How do you use your voice to #FireBack against injustice and to celebrate your community? BYC staff attended the Unity Assembly at Dr. Pedro Albizu Campos High School last week and discussed the youth led #BlackLivesMatter movement, Arts as Resistance and the power of telling our story. A few students volunteered to perform afterwards and we came up with our very own hashtag, #FireBack, to raise our voices against discrimination.
