A federal judge has upheld the right of students in Holmes County, Florida, to wear pro-LGBT clothing and buttons, including Gay? Fine By Me t-shirts. The suit was filed after the principal of Ponce de Leon High School suspended several students for wearing pro-LGBT apparel and actively sought to foster a homophobic atmosphere in the school.
Starting this year, we'll be working with Atticus Circle to help Fine By Me participants continue standing up for equal rights, even after they've participated in the T-Shirt Project.
A high school sophomore outside Ithaca, New York, was sent home from school for wearing a Gay? Fine By Me t-shirt. In response, the town of Spencer has rallied around the student and is demanding Spencer-Van Etten High School allow its students to express their support for LGBT people.
Join the new Gay? Fine By Me T-Shirt Project group on Facebook, and support Fine By Me using GoodSearch.com.
