Yup – We can turn things around… Bullied gay teen finds purpose
Jamie Nabozny is probably person you’ve never heard of. But, he is the one who had the very first successful lawsuit to require a public school district to protect students from anti-bullying and harrassment.
A film entitled “Bullied” was shown in Alabama back in 2010. A film about his life and how he fought back against bullying.
He didn’t know at the time that the film will change the direction of his life. He will spoke to a sold-out educational conference Hamline University in St. Paul yesterday speaking to” teachers, administrators, social workers and parents of gay, lesbian and transgender students”.
“I was no longer the kid from Wisconsin who got beat up. I was the kid from Wisconsin who got beat up, fought back and won, and made a difference for kids all across the country.”
