Stop Bullying!
What does Diversity mean to us simply because at first there were only Adam and Eve and and do you realize that we share the same blood no matter what race, belief and gender we are. Deep down diversity is beaten and down rotten it's proof that many people which regard as the diversity are get the oppression, I'm one of the member of the save diversity, as a gay I've been there and feel how the discrimination towards us is knocking our heart down shattered in to pieces, simply because I'm different than "the common" so put me as weirdo?. People are losing one's mind when confronted with reality, simply of the hegemony of the heteronormativity implies in people mind since we were kid.
I speak with my mother, I asked her to define what "inclusion" is. She defined inclusion as "ensuring that the people do not discriminate in socializing." She further said that the world welcomes all races and religious backgrounds and they do not discriminate based on gender. I was immediately believe that that's no worries to being different, Difference does take many forms though, there are maybe countless ways in which we can be different from each other.
People respond diversity and many ways, some of them deny it and don't want to accept that it is given. Yes, we were different since we born but seems not many people in Indonesia aware about this. Bullying happened as a result of this rejection. LGBT is a regular in the list of prey of this cruelty. We look different, we see different, and we do different to the heteronormative way. It is the main reason why LGBT always become the victim of bullying. Life has gone, and more people who are bullied end their life every day. I feel I need to do something toward this; I want to show people that bullying is not a proper way to answer diversity. Not only for LGBT, but also to people who are marginalized. (among us)
So I made the video. I try to illustrate how bullying effect our live, statistically 70,65% LGBT teenagers got bullied at school in Yogyakarta . It is a compilation of personal statements on seeing bullying action. Some celebrities also involve by giving their statement. The aim is to inspire and encourage people to speak up and announce their statement that we have to end bullying through their voice according to any ability and talent blessed on them. If you sing "sing it out loud with pride, If you paint, paint your mind and color the world the way you like it. And we do believe your bravery and creativity will unite this diverse universe
