Northland College Alliance is promoting student participation in GLSEN's Day of Silence (https://www.glsen.org/dayofsilence), happening this year on April 14th. Here's a statement from GLSEN about what DoS is:

There is an unprecedented level of anti-trans and anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric and policy currently being weaponized against our community, and we thank you for everything you have been doing for and in solidarity with students.

As LGBTQ+ students and educators across the country face attacks on their rights to access affirming books, healthcare, and even the right to be called by the right name and pronouns at school, we use this day as a collective protest to demonstrate the power of our voices and the impact of our silence. Protest comes with risks, and we want to ensure that educators and students alike are prepared to shape actions that fit their schools and communities.

This year, the Day of Silence theme is Rising Up. As part of that theme, educators and other adults across the country will spend the day speaking up in every space online and offline in defense of the rights of LGBTQ+ students. In this time when LGBTQ+ students are being targeted, it is more critical than ever for adults to loudly claim a day of NO silence. Students across the country will be both speaking up and participating in silent protest as a way to demonstrate how thousands of LGBTQ+ students across the country feel everyday — silenced.

If you would like to support students on this day, consider speaking out about LGBTQ discrimination on social media or donating to LGBTQ orgs (https://www.moneygeek.com/financial-planning/lgbtq-charities/)

Reminder folks that tonight we are celebrating our 40th Anniversary in the Alvord!!

Next weekend is our Drag Show! Come and see this groovy group of performers put on a show to remember! We also have a very special guest performing with us, Lady Rose's Drag Mother Verronique! As always this is a free show and all are welcomed to come.

We screamed! We battled! We built! We terrorized tiny snowpeople!




Yes, that is a Godzilla-like creature using the remains of the snowman that was there that got knocked down earlier in the day.

It is a sad reminder that there is still so much violence and hate towards the q***r community in our own country and the rest of the world. Our hearts are with the victims, families, and the community of Colorado Springs that were affected by last night's attack at Club Q.
