My daughter has epilepsy and we (and lots of our fellow epilepsy friends) are upset about the color purple being taken over because purple is the international color of epilepsy awareness. March 26 is purple day for epilepsy awareness.
It’s like pink is to cancer.
Now, purple will be associated with this “spirit” day.
Back to epilepsy not getting any awareness.
My daughter also made a point of wondering why they were just targetting gay bullying when lots of people are bullied. Why not just do a anti-bullying campaign.
You and your daughter asked, “Why not just do a anti-bullying campaign.”
