Stand Up! Don't Stand for Homophobic Bullying (2011)

Every once in a great long while something truly worthy happens in the human experience.

Recently, Don Savage's IT GETS BETTER PROJECT was one of these; Nathan Manske's I'M FROM DRIFTWOOD before him, and THE KID'S HELP PHONE anti-bullying Public Service Announcements (PSA's) airing daily for the past 15-years in Canada are other prime examples.

Ireland and their BELONG TO YOUTH SERVICES have stepped up to the plate and hit a home run becoming equally deserving of our wholehearted support.

STAND UP! DON'T STAND FOR HOMOPHOBIC BULLYING [Ireland, 2011, Directed by Anna Rodgers and Aoife Kelleher, 4 mins., EAN: Unknown]

Anti-homophobic bullying Public Service Announcement (PSA) created as an integral part of Ireland's BeLonG To Youth Services annual (April, 2011) Stand Up! LGBT Awareness Weeks. This year's campaign promotes friendship amongst young people as a way to combat homophobic bullying.

Written and directed by Anna Rodgers and Aoife Kelleher, this truly brilliant "Creative", produced by Zlata Filipovic for Crossing The Line Films, illustrates admirably the nascent power of the visual media to deliver its' intended message. The PSA was financed in part through support provided by the European Union Commission's Progress Programme for Diversity Against Discrimination on behalf of BeLonG To Youth Services.

Whilst primarily focused on LGBTQ-bullying, the vidéo is broadly gender and subject neutral, focusing on "friendship" as such applies to bullying in general; therefore, once translated it has proven to be region, language, and ethnic positive and proactive, and deserving of The World's unmitigated support with the widest possible dissemination of it's most worthy and valuable message.

Recently, I had asked the clientèle at my LGBTQ vidéo file-sharing blog to create sub-titles in their native languages and submit them to me for embedding in the English-language reference vidéo for distribution. This is what we have achieved thus far, with many others yet to be created; but, few committed.

If you would like to create sub-titles in your mother-tongue, and it's not already linked to one of the many listed in the table which follows, kindly e-Mail me and I will forward to you the English-language reference translation suitable for editing in the desired language. Upon it's return I will compile a new vidéo, embedding your sub-titles, posting links to my Channel at YouTube where I will archive the film for others to view and download.

Kid's Help Phone (Canada Only)

Stop A Bully (Canada Only)

From a concept developed in 1999 initially by British Columbian Secondary School Teacher Trevor Knowlton, the STOP A BULLY programme has become Canada's premier school violence reporting service available to students, parents and schools. This system allows both victims and witnesses of violence to safely make a report, to prevent future bullying and harassment. By using this service schools make it clear to their students that they are PROACTIVE in trying to stop violence & cyber bullying within their school. This is a private service supported by donations, intended to provide assistance in the challenge of reducing bullying in our schools.

Youth Without Shelter (Toronto and Edmonton)

Youth Without Shelter (YWS) is an emergency residence and referral agency serving homeless youth aged 16 to 24. Open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, YWS believes in second chances, building confidence and teaching life skills to empower youth to break the cycle of homelessness. It provides the basic necessities of life - but it also steps well beyond the basics, to offer support and training programs and a unique educational opportunity for youth who want to finish school. Our vision is ending homelessness... one youth at a time, one step at a time.

The Trevor Project Helpline (U.S.A only)

Established in 1998 to coincide with the Time/Warner Specialty Cable Channel HBO's airing of the award winning gay-themed short-subject film, "Trevor", hosted by Ellen DeGeneres, The Trevor Helpline is the only nationwide, around-the-clock crisis and suicide prevention helpline for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning youth. The Trevor Helpline is a free and confidential service that offers hope and someone to talk to, 24/7. The Trevor Helpline's trained counselors will listen and understand without judgment. If you or someone you know would like to talk to one of our highly trained counselors, dial 1-866-4-U-TREVOR.

I'm From Driftwood

Here you'll find gay stories from every corner of the Earth which should be, and are being, told. "Why?", you may ask, "What does it mean?" To gay teens struggling to come out and deal with their sexuality, who to this day still attempt suicide 4 times more than straight kids, it says “You are not alone.” Other people have dealt with similar situations, families, communities and churches, and have overcome and are now living happy lives. It can happen for you, too. It will, can, and does get so much better.All any of us can ask is that you hang in there; and to the people who don’t support equal rights, it says we’re not all that different afterall. We all have stories and problems and loves and lives just like everyone else. So maybe we should all be treated like everyone else, too.

Anti-Bullying Alliance (U.K. Only)

No Bully (U.S.A. Only)

The mission of No Bully® is to make school a place where every student feels included by their peers and accepted for who they are, so that we create a world where every adult is accepted and valued for who they are. No Bully helps schools and school districts to develop an anti-bullying policy and implement campus-wide programs to address bullying. But we don’t stop there. Our goal is for all students to develop the social and emotional intelligence that will give them greater success in their peer relationships, their academic performance and in their adult lives. We offer a choice of powerful workshops, trainings and consultation to make this happen.
