"On April 25, students around the country were invited to participate in the national "Day of Silence," a youth-run event that highlights bullying and harassment of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender students. Participating students maintain silence over the course of the day or for a portion of the day to call for an end to physical, psychological and verbal abuse of LGBT students, according to the event's Web site.
