Brea Lawrenson and Braiden Turner, have been named National spokespersons for the Canadian Red Cross RespectED program. Their song Black and Purple is an anthem written from the perspective of a bully . They tell about the pain of both victims and bullies as well as the emotional and sometimes physical harm that bullying does.The song Black and Purple began to take shape when Brea and Braiden were songwriting. They had both been bullied in school but never realized that they actually shared this experience.As both Brea and Braiden said, “We realized that the bully must be going through something to want to hurt others. It helped take the anger away to write the song,”RespectED is part of an encompassing Canadian Red Cross program called Beyond the Hurt that focuses on violence and abuse prevention education, works with schools to develop a climate that deals effectively with and discourages bullying.The program helps young people understand the dynamics of this destructive behaviour, and teaches them ways to stop bullying. About one in five kids are regularly bullied and the effects can be devastating for some.The RespectED program is targeting elementary school children, most specifically students in grades five to eight and this past September Brea and Braiden visited many schools in Western Canada to talk about bullying... and to sing their song.Brea and Braiden have produced a Black and Purple CD with part of the proceeds going to the RespectED Program.
