This short narrative depicts a very common setting that can often takes place in elementary, grammar, and high schools alike. A setting where following the crowd becomes a trend and forgetting our humanity and our relation to one another becomes more prominent than ever.
This video does a beautiful job of singling out one bully in particular and observing him as he goes through the moral changes of someone who's realized that what he’s been doing is wrong. His personal development is pretty evident in the narrative, to the point where he looks sick from having treated a fellow classmate the way he did.
Though it's a harsh reality, bullying is a real problem for many people, regardless of their age or gender. And it's not always clearly visible; while this video focuses on some very blatant and overt displays of bullying, it could also be happening where you least expect it. But with videos like these that have such a strong message, there’s definitely hope in changing the need to criticize or victimize anyone. This video reminds me of this celebrity who brought attention to mental health and bullying through a viral post.
