In the wake of the suicide of Jaheem Herrera, the 11-year-old Decatur boy who hung himself on Thursday, April 16th after enduring relentless bullying in school based on his perceived sexual orientation and ethnicity, there will be a vigil in his honor on Tuesday, April 28th.

Vigil for Jaheem Herrera:
Tuesday, April 28th, 2009
6:00pm - 8:00pm
First Christian Church of DecaturStreet

Please join community leaders (including the amazing Simone Bell) to offer condolences and support to
the family and community.

Tuesday night’s vigil is sponsored by The Faith and Community Alliance. Georgia Equality, PFLAG and Refugee Resettlement and Immigration Services of Atlanta will also be participating in the vigil.
