Political Figures Post on Social Media for Spirit Day
Now in its sixth year, Spirit Day enjoys support from a whole host of politicians, journalists, and celebrities. Go purple!
Today is the sixth annual Spirit Day, a day to wear purple and show solidarity for kids who have been bullied and stand up against bullying. Political figures and journalists across the US have been donning purple and changing their social media profile pictures to show support. Here are some of our favorites.
