Late Night Video — To This Day

Filed in National by on March 10, 2013

To This Day is a poem by Shane Koyczan — a man who understands bullying from the perspective of both the bullied kid and as the bullier. This poem explores the deep pain and dislocation of being bullied and being the bullier. And he has a message for those experiencing the same difficulties. This video is approx. 12 minutes long and I was in tears at the end:

h/t to Upworthy, who provides a handy viewing guide to this video.

To This Day is forming up into a project to stand up to bullying. Sign up if you want to be a part of this.
