Wisconsin Students Do An 'It Gets Better' Video Via Lady Gaga's Song 'Hair'

This is the video description;

In support of the It Gets Better Project, Colton James Boettcher's artistic vision takes shape in the form of a music video interpretation of Lady Gaga's song, Hair. Hair is about being yourself, being true to who you are; as the song exemplifies, "you are the spirit of your hair, it's all the glory you bare", YOU are your #hair."As most of us know, growing up isn't easy. Countless young people are faced with daily tormenting and bullying, causing them to feel isolated and alone. This is an especially harsh reality for LGBT kids and teens, who often hide their sexuality for fear of bullying. In many instances, gay and lesbian adolescents are taunted, sometimes even tortured, simply for being themselves.




What an awesome video and I agree with Joe that it is a pretty big production!   The students involved should be very proud of themselves and I am very proud of all involved for standing up and saying bullying will not be allowed and that it does get better!
