Council member Rosie Mendez has made a contribution to the viral online video project “It Gets Better.” The project was started by syndicated sex columnist Dan Savage last month as a response to a recent rash of teen suicides that are believed to have been triggered by intense bullying. The teens were all known to be gay. Savage posted the first video on September 21 and hundreds of people have responded by posting their own videos since (including President Obama this past Friday).
