Shoulder to Shoulder - Standing With American Muslims; Upholding American Values

Odyssey Networks: 2012 Hours Against Hate young adult story submissions

If you are between the ages of 15 and 24, here's how you can have your story of a great experience made into a video...

Volunteer one hour where you spend time

with someone different from you.

find someone who doesn't look like you,

or who does not live like you

AND who doesn't pray like you.

Spend an hour engaged in some activity with this person. This activity could be eating together, visiting a special place, etc. The 'doing it together' part is more important than exactly what you are doing. For as many ways as you find that you are different, talk with that person about how many ways you are the same. How many things do you have in common? Can you make the ration 5 to1?

Two winning stories will be chosen by Odyssey Networks and they will send a professional video crew to film your story! The winning video will be shown on Odyssey Network's website!
