Hello everyone!

A Towson student recently shared with us that a close friend of hers is working on a film that addresses the nature of LGBT bullying and the awful effects which it has on so many LGBT people. This looks to be a great project which a young, LGBTQIA filmmaker is working on, and he’s trying to spread the word in order to raise funding to support the production of his film.

LGBT bullying has such an incredibly harmful impact on so many members of the LGBT community, and the more that we do to educate others on the need for its eradication and stand up to speak out against it, the better the future of the community and LGBTQIA people everywhere.

Check out the link below to learn more, and consider making a donation and/or sharing the link via Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and Google+ to spread the word and support the production of this film. You will be speaking out against LGBT bullying in doing so!

Please,  explain what the "IA" at the end of LGBTQ stands for.      Not everyone is certain of their meaning.   Thank you,    Erma

I don't usually see it spelled out that way, but here is my best effort

Apparently they can mean several things

I have found this link VERY helpful; a real education in itself!    Thank you, Mark.       Erma
