I am wrapping up the semester and showed your story again. I talk to my students about finding a voice, being empowered etc. My goal is to get them to realized the power they have through the tools we learn in my class.
Anyway, after we got done talking about you and others who have found a voice, I let them log onto your website and encouraged to look at "Just Yell Fire", we had already talked about the video's origins and message. At the end of class a very quiet 8th grader who never really speaks out much came up to my desk.
"Do you know how fast they can send the video? I am going to be moving soon."
Maybe that doesn't have the impact for you that it had on me. I have no idea what her personal story is, but the really timid girl making such an inquiry made me wonder.
I don't know how long videos take to ship. But I happily gave her mine. She was stunned and looked at it and then me with a wide eye, then said thanks and walked back to her seat still looking at it.
It was a nice moment, just wanted to share.
Thanks for who you are and what you stand for.

Thank you very much for the DVD. You have no idea how
much this is going to be used. Our Public Education person
has 50 different school presentations booked so far, and
she's not done! This DVD will be perfect for our needs.
Thanks again - and all the young people she will reach thank you too.
How proud you must be of your daughter and her friend for their efforts at creating such a fantastic film. A friend loaned me the DVD and I watched it with my 14 year old daughter last night. VERY POWERFUL!!! My daughter was on the verge of tears during the date rape scene, as my niece, her cousin, was in a similar situation and was unfortunately not prepared.
I would love to have a copy to share with my daughters campfire troop and would also like to review it over and over so that both my daughters are prepared in such an attack situation.
Thank you again for making the film available to everyone. It is invaluable information for our daughters!
With Appreciation
Keep up the good work!
As the father of two girls, 8 and 10, I appreciate the work you are doing. I will share your message with my daughters and my friends.
Keep up the good work!
I'm now a grandmother of two beautiful grandchildren and I don't know what I would do if anyone ever hurt them. I'm so proud of the work you have done and the strength and courage you have shown in your DVD.
Thank you for your Efforts and thank you for sharing such a wonderful DVD. Keep up the great work girls.
