I do so many things that sometimes I work myself silly, but I like to be busy, because it makes life fun and enjoyable. I am the Current President of our Gay :Straight Alliance on campus, I am director of the Allies Project, a group that promotes diversity and inclusion rather thant exclusion. I am invloved in BAchhus a group that promotes responsible drinking, I was involved in Student activities ahere I planned events, I was presidnet of Key Club in HIgh School, I also started a group Link Crew at my school ..which failed miserably...but I did it. I played soccer and still play soccer. Play basketball, and have played my whole life. I also love to travel and meet new people. I am a firm beleiver that everyone that passes through your life touches you in some way, no matter hwo big or small and I am sad at the fact that I will never meet every single person on this planet becasue there is so much to be learned from each of us. ( I know it's wierd, but it's also sad) I love movies, I wouold say most of my income has gone directly towards my vast collection of DVDs. I love music too. I love having fun and thinking of creative things to pass time with. All in all, I just love this beautiful life that I have eben giving, and I am trying my best to milk up every opportunity that I am given.

About me:

Hello,
My name is Ryan and I am from Spokane, WA. I go to Gonzaga and am down to earth. You could call me an activist, but I just believe in equality for all. I believe that people are good, all people, and that each and every person deserves respect and unconditional love. Anyway, hope you are having a wonderful day and I will talk to you later. The video below totally describes my world...can't express how much it does...

So I was thinking....you know....if people like what I have to say, or what I have put together video wise... it would be nice to maybe have some help in all of the stuff I am trying to do. I mean, changing the world can be a daunting task, believe it or not. So I decided to create a donation jar....if you like what I have to say in my blogs, or what you see in my videos, please help me to do more, but donating to my donation jar. Whether a buck or 1 million dollars, I don't care, just anything to help me out (ie school, programs, conferences, etc, etc) Thanks everyone!!!

"Today"
By: Sami Schalk, age 14
What if today,
We all went blind,
Would we still know,
Black from white?
What if today,
We all went blind,
Would our nations
Continue to fight?
What if today,
We all went blind,
Would we know one race,
From another?
What if today,
We all went blind,
Would you mistake me,
For your brother?
And if today,
We all went blind,
The world becoming,
An unknown place.
Would you be able,
To trust me?
Without seeing the color,
Of my face?
If today,
We all went blind,
Today would be the day,
When we would all,
Hate ourselves,
For what we thought,
But did not say.

"Death To Hate"
By: Ian Glass, age 17
A world separated by colors and creeds,
filled with too many bigots that nobody needs.
They try to make you believe that its not okay to think for yourself if you are gay.
They will constantly come back and attack you and you're family if you are black.
They will treat you the same and wont question what you do until they find out that you are a Jew.
They will lock you away, keep you under the gun if they find out that you are a native son.
The world doesn't need people that hate.
And for the innocent it may already be too late.
Deep down inside we are all the same.
All that separates us are labels and names.
Don't sit there and let the hate take place.
Just so that you can save face.
Stand up and fight and raise your fist.
And say that's enough and resist.
We must stand together because time just wont wait.
We must stand as one and bring death to hate.
