“The Butterfly Effect” —

DelaWhere? youth poets Adam Alexander and Hilde Rose perform their group piece, “The Butterfly Effect” at the 2011 Brave New Voices team.

“Apathy is hate crime and we should have seen that sooner. — Wearing purple for one day won’t stop another kid from slicing open his neck to see if he really bleeds rainbows.”

Whoaa… You need to see this, no matter who you are. These people have talent.

This illustrates pretty perfectly the issues I’ve always found with those “it gets better” and “wearing purple” campaigns - worth a watch.
