Travis Price was bullied throughout high school. One day, at the start of school in 2007, he saw a grade 9 student being bullied for wearing a pink shirt. As a senior, Price decided to stand up for this student, and for himself, and do something to set an example for the school. Together with his best friend, David Shephard, Price bought 75 pink tank tops and asked the other students at school to wear pink shirts the next day. 80% of the students complied, and Pink Shirt Day was born. Today, the pink shirt has become an international symbol for anti-bullying.

    Thanks Karma Tube for another great and important video. Just so disappointed that it was only tonight (18th February) that I got to view the video. Next time flag it a few days in advance. Otherwise I might have worn my pink shirt to work......not that I really need a reason to wear it.

    I've created an indoor winter walk at the Green Acres Mall, "One Step at a Time to Stop Bullying" for New Horizon Counseling Center on Long Island, New York, to support children's services. Everyone understands and empathizes the heartache in being bullied - this is a chance to do something about it - Sunday, March 6th!
