Spirit Day 2016

20 October is Spirit Day! It's a day when millions of people go purple to show their support for LGBTQ youth and especially for tackling LGBTQ bullying. Observed annually since 2010, individuals, schools, organisations, corporations, and public figures wear purple, which symbolises 'spirit' on the rainbow flag.
