Student-led “Day of Truth” to be held April 28 ADF sponsors fourth annual “Day of Truth” to allow students SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Christian students at high schools nationwide will participate in the fourth annual “Day of Truth” on April 28. The “Day of Truth” is a student-led event designed to provide students an opportunity to counter the promotion of the homosexual agenda by peacefully expressing an opposing viewpoint from a Christian perspective. “Christian students should be allowed to express their viewpoint just like any other student,” said Alliance Defense Fund Senior Counsel Joe Infranco. “The Day of Truth is an opportunity for Christian students to respectfully present a different viewpoint than students participating in the Day of Silence. The truth emerges when both sides of an issue are presented.” The Day of Truth will be held on the next school day after the Day of Silence, an event promoted by the Gay, Lesbian, Straight Education Network (GLSEN), which asks students to remain silent for an entire day to express their support of the homosexual agenda. In 2005, ADF launched the Day of Truth as a peaceful, nationwide, student-led event. Students at more than 1,600 schools participated in the event in 2007. “Students can’t be expected to make good, well-informed decisions if they’re only hearing part of the story,” said Infranco. “Making informed decisions requires having good information. The consequences of making decisions with inadequate information can be severe.” For more information on the Day of Truth, visit www.dayoftruth.org. ADF is a legal alliance defending the right to hear and speak the Truth through strategy, training, funding, and litigation.
