| TESTIMONIALS |
"The
message of mutual respect and human acceptance is
a message in need of champions such as this program.
I know many of our students were deeply touched by
this powerful and promising image of the past horrors
and future hope of the human spirit."
- Daniel Behm Superintendent of Schools Carman-Ainsworth Community Schools, Flint, Michigan "This
program was amazing. I had no idea what to expect
when I walked into the auditorium, but as I sat
through the film I could not help but think how
terrible hate is and what it does to people."
"The program reminded
me of my brother who gets picked on because of his
sexual orientation and how I have to stand up for
him." "I
was moved to tears."
