Throughout the year, various days are dedicated to highlighting different facets of the LGBTQ+ community, fostering understanding, advocacy, and visibility. Today, we're spotlighting two important awareness days occurring in early April: the Day of Silence and International Asexuality Day.
Day of Silence (April 11, 2025)
The Day of Silence is a student-led national event organized by GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network) to raise awareness about the impact of anti-LGBTQ+ bullying, harassment, and discrimination in schools. Students and educators take a vow of silence for the entire school day, symbolically representing the silencing and erasure that LGBTQ+ individuals often face. Participants end the day by sharing their experiences and advocating for safer, more inclusive school environments.

International Asexuality Day (April 6, 2025)
International Asexuality Day focuses on raising awareness about asexuality and the broader asexual spectrum, advocating for greater understanding and acceptance of asexual identities. It aims to educate communities, support individuals within the asexual spectrum, and celebrate the diversity of experiences and identities encompassed by asexuality. This day also addresses common misconceptions and promotes dialogue about the unique challenges faced by the asexual community.
We invite you to explore these resources and participate in conversations about these vital topics. By learning, sharing, and advocating together, we can create more inclusive and supportive communities for everyone.
With love and solidarity,The Dulles Triangles Board of Directors 🌟🏳️🌈✨
