Australian campaign to fight bullying and homophobia - "Year 7 Self"
Minus18 is Australia's largest support network for gay, bisexual, lesbian and trans teenagers from all over Australia.
Minus18 has begun a new campaign called "Year 7 Self" that features heterosexual Aussies talking to their 7 year old selves regarding regret over not being more supportive of their LGBT friends who came out, and the value of those friendships as they grew older.
As the Year 7 Self website states, "Just because we're straight, doesn't mean we have to be narrow. You might not know it now, but you're going to have people in your life who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans... And that's a pretty awesome thing."
Check out the video above then head over to the website here.
