GMA is doing a competition for High Schools across America and sending Katy Perry to do a concert for the winners. In order to win, you have to create a video for Katy Perry's Roar.
Cooper High, an underdog highschool in Abilene, chose to use this opportunity to make a statement about bullying. This is what they have to say about it:Β
We are the forgotten ones, the overlooked and under-appreciated. Though they try to break us and separate us by class, gender, and cash, we stand strong together. To the voiceless, we gave a voice. We did not wait until they told us it was ok to speak, until we had permission to be unique. Each sign is a direct quote from those who are considered the unpopular and the unwanted. We are not defined by the hate in other's hearts. Immigrants, outcasts, the broken, but not bad, we are Cooper High.
This is pretty awesome. Way to go, Cooper High. Way to go.Β
