Gay and 13; Bullying and Suicide

Australian Tyrone Unsworth was gay. He was 13. He was bullied violently and relentlessly. He killed himself.

Let’s Americans support our Australian brothers and sisters, in whatever small way we can, to “creat[e] safe and supportive school environments” and “reduce homophobic and transphobic bullying and discrimination in schools.” Please sign and share the petition begun by Tyrone’s mother to support the Safe Schools Coalition.

UPDATED (Dec 28, 2016): “Heartbroken Family and Friends,” funeral is held.
