After the Official Street Preacher demonstration on Tuesday, Mac parents decided to spread messages of love and support towards the LGBTQ+ community. Former McCallum teacher and current McCallum parent Nikki Northcutt organized the meetup through the parent Facebook page. “Silence is not gonna work,” Northutt said. “We also need to be positive and showing support and that’s literally the only reason I’m here. If one kid in there sees these parents and feels validated then it’s worth it.”
