An S.O.S. was recently sent out across New Jersey, if not the country. We need to stop the pain and violence in our world and in our school communities. Bullying, hatred, and exclusion are NOT ACCEPTABLE! "Whatever hurts my brothers and sisters hurts me."

PBJ (Benedictine Students Peace & Justice Club) and our Sisters of the Spirit joined forces to give witness to other BA students and students from St. Benedict's Prep 'about the need to take a stand and not remain silent. They made a short documentary (currently being transferred to a different recording media for posting) and gave witness to the school about the need to do what we are supposed to do.

As Dr. Michael Fowlin, an actor/psychologist, who spoke to the school following the showing of our new STAND UP documentary, said "Don't be a ZEBRA! In the animal kingdom, zebras will simply stand around and watch another animal being attacked. Speak up! "
