Funeral for Halloween Activism Initiative

r-i-p   Is the Left KILLING HALLOWEEN with warnings of ‘cultural appropriation,’ political correctness, and by telling you what you can and can’t wear on Halloween? You can fight back in YAF style by hosting your own Funeral for Halloween. It’s a super easy way to advocate for free speech not political correctness!  It also shows your peers that its okay to have fun on Halloween!

1. Buy a coffin yard decoration, or make one yourself by spray-painting a long rectangular cardboard box.

VTFuneral2. Gather Halloween costumes from your members to display in the coffin. You can also obtain gravestones and other Halloween decorations to add to your display. 12188987_924339327632709_6151082963077715461_n

3. Write an obituary for Halloween detailing how the Left and PC culture is killing the fun and lighthearted holiday on your campus (or use our sample).12189990_924339284299380_6426005427678516118_n

4. Set up a table in a high traffic area on or around October 31st to hand out your obituaries and Halloween candy in front of your display to point out the ridiculousness of the ‘cultural appropriation’ epidemic running rampant on college campuses killing Halloween.  img_5038-copy

  YAF provided the expert support to create this original activism project at Virginia Tech when administrators supported the student government’s “My Culture Is Not a Costume Initiative” and targeted those who dissented.  Now it’s your turn to respond to leftists on campus by bringing YAF’s Funeral for Halloween to your school.
