>Do we have to be silent the whole day? Can we text or post online?

>We encourage each person to participate in the way they are most comfortable. Some will be silent all day long. Others will hold a silent lunch. Still others will be vocal supporters. The key is that you call attention to the silencing effect of anti-LGBT bullying and harassment.

During the Day of Silence many will be communicating online to show their support of the Day of Silence. It’s definitely okay to use Facebook, Twitter, texting and other forms of online communication during the Day of Silence, especially if you’re spreading the word about DOS!

Also, on Friday we’ll be Tweeting the Silence all day, so be sure to follow @DayofSilence on Twitter and tweet using the #dayofsilence hashtag. Stay tuned for more details!
