Activism FTW: Red Sox Stuff

Normally, I wouldn't ask for anyone to do anything but read...BUT this is a fantastic cause!
[UPDATE] And because you did do it, THEY'RE DOING IT!




"Sam Maden is 12 years old. He loves the Boston Red Sox. And he believes in equality, inspired by his Uncle Chris, who died unexpectedly in January at the 
age of 43.

So when Sam’s teacher recently asked him to come up with a project that could “make a difference” in the world, Sam had an idea to merge his love for the Red Sox with a cause his uncle believed in passionately: ending the bullying of gay kids and kids perceived to be gay.

Like many kids, Sam wondered what his favorite baseball team would do after the San Francisco Giants -- prompted by a Change.org member -- announced that they would become the first pro sports team to make an “It Gets Better” video to fight homophobia in sports and stand up against anti-gay bullying.

Sam decided to honor his Uncle Chris by starting a petition asking the Red Sox to make an “It Gets Better” video as well -- a potential breakthrough moment in building momentum against homophobia in sports."
