We @ NOUS saw this amazing message on http://www.redcardhomophobia.org/ a great organization promoting awareness against H8. We're very happy to get involved and help spread awareness to end hate.
America's Next Top Model Finalist and Modelville Winner Dominique Reighard teams up with NOUS Online Magazine and the talented team of Amazing Artists: Photographer Jason Setiawan, Make-up Artist Kaman Lam, and Hair Stylist Brian - David Daigle to deliver this stunning image of Dominique wearing Purple eyeshadow to promote awareness for SPIRIT DAY. It’s been decided. On October 20th, 2010, we will wear purple in honor of the six gay boys (Tyler Clementi, Seth Walsh, Justin Aaberg, Raymond Chase, Aher Brown, and Billy Lucas) who committed suicide in recent weeks/months due to homophobic abuse in their homes and at their schools. This is also dedicated to those affected by gay bashing, emotional, mental, and physical abuse. Purple represents Spirit on the LGBTQ flag and that’s exactly what we’d like all of you to have with you: spirit. Please know that times will get better and that you will meet people who will love you and respect you for who you are, no matter your sexuality. Please wear purple on October 20th. Tell your friends, family, co-workers, neighbors and schools. Please spread the word.
