About this listen

Wear It Purple Day is celebrating 15 years of action and support for young LGBTIQA+ people. Founded in 2010 in response to stories of bullying and harassment, it’s a chance for us to show up for our young people, affirming that they are seen, supported, and valued. Rachel and Jordan spoke to Reb Mery, Brand Marketing Manager from Minus 18 about the significance of this day for our diverse communities. They discussed their personal experiences as young LGBTIQA+ people in highschool, and the generational differences and similarities that remain.
