Anonymous Threatens to Expose Nova Scotia Girl's Rapists; Mother Discusses Her Suicide
Maggie Lange · 04/11/13 07:53AMThis past Sunday, a 17-year-old girl in Nova Scotia named Rehtaeh Parsons died after hanging herself two days earlier. Parsons' mother says her daughter committed suicide because she was raped—and subsequently bullied and ostracized—in 2011. No charges were ever brought against her rapists: The police said the case was a matter of "he said, she said," and the pictures taken did not qualify as child pornography.

We are 13- and 14-year-olds, rank-smelling in unwashed teenager jeans, unsupervised and latch-keyed after school, huddled around the face of the future: The screen of a first-generation Apple Macintosh personal computer. Within the machine's non-dairy creamer-colored casing is a malleable visual playground unlike anything we had seen before: Manic fonts, brick-wall patterns summoned with a mouse-click and distorted at will, spray-paint lines of variable size and density.

Taylor Berman · 10/14/12 09:46PMFor 10 years, the Southern Poverty Law Center has sponsored Mix It Up at Lunch Day, an anti-bullying initiative in which school children are encouraged to break out of their normal social cliques and eat lunch with someone they might not normally sit next to. The program is designed to lessen bullying by making kids familiar with different types of people. Over 2,500 schools now participate in the program.
