Day of Silence
On Friday, April 13, Hopkins recognized the Day of Silence, organized by SAGA (Sexuality and Gender Advocates). The Day of Silence is an action day to recognize gender and sexuality diversity, and to call attention to the silencing of students, which occurs through bullying, harassment, and, more subtly, erasure. Some members of the community chose to observe the day by pledging to remain silent for the day, or by wearing a sticker or ribbon to show support.
In assembly, SAGA members shared anonymous stories about lived experiences in the LGBTQ+ community at Hopkins. Several students recited original poetry, and another group shared a musical performance. At the end of the day, the community broke the silence together, please see the video below.
