With Spirit Day fast approaching, Nick News shared the stories of several LGBT teenagers in an episode entitled "Coming Out." Included in the lineup was former Spirit Day Ambassador and anti-bullying advocate, Marcel Neergaard.
Marcel talked to Nick News about coming out to his family, and the bullying that he faced in school from people who were formerly his friends.
"Using who I am as an insult hurt," Marcel told Nick News. "People so much underestimate what words can do."
You can watch the Nick News episode here to learn more about Marcel's story, along with some other amazing LGBT youth.
