Pink shirt days is celebrated to signify a stand against bullying. Pink shirt day originated in Canada, now celebrated worldwide on different dates; for us, it is on the 21st of May. We wear pink shirts to recognize those who are bullied and stand up for them by wearing pink clothing.
Why does pink represent anti-bullying? In 2007, two students from Nova Scotia high school stood up for a student who was bullied for wearing a pink shirt. They bought pink shirts for the other students to show their support for the boy who wore the pink shirt.
