ThinkB4YouSpeak


Oct 08, 2008
ThinkB4YouSpeak is a web site launched in conjunction with the Ad Council campaign to fight anti-LGBT language by raising awareness among straight teens about the prevalence and consequences of anti-LGBT bias and behavior in America's schools.

The website, www.ThinkB4YouSpeak.com, provides tips on how to support LGBT issues and the opportunity for visitors to take a stand against anti-LGBT language through an interactive pledge form that will allow teens to "say something original," by sharing alternatives to "that's so gay."

The site also includes a dictionary-type tool that illustrates a word's meaning and the notion of understanding one's choice of words. Additional features include an e-card and a video library that calls for user submissions.
