From SoulForce…

Hailing from across the country, and one from Cyprus, the 2010 team brings a multitude of unique experiences and backgrounds, bound by a common desire to make campuses and communities safe, welcoming and affirming for people of all identities.

The Riders will board the bus on March 4th to begin their two-month long journey – stopping at 16 campuses in the Northeast, South, and Midwest – all with policies that are discriminatory to LGBTQ students.

Soulforce is placing a special focus on community work this year, and are hoping to engage not just with the campuses we visit, but with the communities they live in. This means partnering with communities in volunteer work, hosting activism/organizing forums, linking students with community members, and offering our support for the justice work that is already happening in the places we are visiting.

Check out where the 2010 Equality Ride is heading, and find out how YOU can get involved!
