Jordan Addison, a Radford University student and advocate, is no stranger to dealing with homophobic vandalism. After bullies vandalized Addison’s car with anti-gay slurs, a local auto repair shop owner offered to fix it free of charge. Jordan has shared his story on The Ellen Degeneres Show and Huffington Post and his story has been picked up by news outlets throughout the world. Addison advocates against bullying and for the LGBT community through his university’s Gay Straight Alliance and Safe Zone program.
