For this Matter of the Month, we&#39;re discussing Pink Shirt Day, a day dedicated to raising awareness against bullying and fostering kindness.  Back in 2007, two high school students in Nova Scotia, David Shepherd and Travis Price, saw a younger student being bullied with homophobic slurs and threats. These two students responded by giving out 50 pink shirts to classmates, sparking a global movement against bullying. One that VSB sees come alive every year.  Joining us today is Joel Fleming, a teacher at False Creek Elementary.If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe to our podcast and leave a review.
