Bermuda College is holding a ‘Stop the Violence’ event this afternoon [Oct 24] as part of their Spirit Week activities, with everyone invited to wear red and gather to listen to speeches with an anti-violence message.
The initiative is being led by the male-connect Registered Student Organisation MenSpeak, and is aimed to providing male students with a leading opportunity to get involved with projects “on the ground and address the issue of gang violence”, according to MenSpeak Coordinator, Lyndon Jackson.
A spokesperson previously said, “Anti-violence campaigner Desmond Crockwell and Antonio Belvedere, anti-violence activist, BC alumnus and former Student Government Council President will give short speeches about gang violence, and a moment of silence will be observed to honour the memory of those killed as a result. Several Government ministers are expected to be in attendance to show support.”
“Although this event is driven by male students, gang violence is something that connects with all students,” said Mr. Jackson. “This is a symbolic gesture to stop the violence. It’s a time of coming together.”
