Join us June 13th 7th 1PM PST/ 4PM EST “No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion.

MARK WILLIAMS PINK THURSDAY FOUNDER! Pink Thursday Mark Williams, founder of Pink Thursday, is a man inspired and a man determined to make a positive difference in the world.

With Pink Thursday Williams hopes to inspire a global project of bullying prevention. Rising above his personal experiences with being bullied, Mark Williams embraces the words of one of his inspirations, Nelson Mandela, and applies it to his ideology. If someone can be taught to hate then they can be taught to love. In 2016, Williams began wearing a pink shirt at his place of employment.
