Mentor High School, 'Mentor' & Veganism: Listening To Local Voices

1. A lot has been said about , bullying and suicide by both the national and local media, including Mentor Patch.

The latest voice to join the discussion is a documentary from Though the documentary is unfinished, a trailer was posted online.

However, the voice that has been seemingly absent is that of Mentor High students.

To rectify that, MHS Student Government President Sarah Perry has written a blog post with her reaction to Lambert's documentary trailer. She writes:

Although this film may have been made with the good intentions of spreading awareness about the issue of bullying, it has left students upset and frustrated.

Instead of showing both sides of the story, this film focuses on the sensationalism created by only using lawyers and the parents of the bullying victims. It paints the students of Mentor High School as cold and heartless monsters, mercilessly preying on those with differences.

Sarah's blog has already been read more than a 1,000 people and recommended more than a 100 times on Facebook.

2. Sarah's blog post is not the only one garnering a lot of attention.

Rachel Jewell -- blogger/herbivore -- is often asked why is a vegan. She turned the question around and asked people why they eat meat.

So far, her questions has garnered more than 100 comments. (but keep it holy. This is a family site.)
