On 11th August 2007, 20 year-old Sophie Lancaster and her boyfriend Robert Maltby were kicked, stamped on and left unconscious - for nothing more than looking different. Sophie later died from her injuries.
It would have been Sophie's 23rd birthday on the 26th November.
ILLAMASQUA has funded an animated 4 minute video titled Sophie: A Dark Angel that will be premiered internationally on MTV this Thursday 26th November at 9pm [during a break of The Hills] it will then run after 9pm across all MTV channels.
Sylvia Lancaster, the Mother of Sophie has been quoted as saying “The film is a chilling and dramatic reminder of how prejudice, hatred and intolerance can destroy lives. It has been created as a reminder to all people to stop, and think twice, before judging, insulting, abusing or attacking someone – purely based on how they look.”

The video will also be available to watch at www.youtube.com/sophiefoundation
So terrible. When Sophie's mother spoke at the Illamasqua event I went to it was really upsetting.
ReplyDeleteI will keep my eyes peeled for the video.

It's so sad that someone could take her life because how she looked. That kind of hate is hard for me to handle.
ReplyDeleteI felt so sad when I heard about what happened to Sophie and Robert and I remember reading about it in a magazine. It always shocks me that there are people out there that can be so brutal and unfeeling. This is exactly why we all have to try and extinguish any hate, discrimination and bullying we come across in life.
ReplyDeletethis is too sad. i just can't believe it. thanks for sharing.

This story really shook me up. Prejudice and hatred for others because they look different, sound different, etc. is absolutely ridiculous!
ReplyDeleteMay she rest in peace.
Such a horrible thing to happen. In all the photos I've seen she was such a beautiful girl!
ReplyDeleteIn the modern world we think that we should be past this, that we are civilized enough to live and let live, but there are so many places in our world where women get killed for this reason and a lot less!
Sophie we will remember you and strive to see that this changes things far beyond the land you lived and died in.
Thanks Sam and Nic for posting and speaking about this on your website and blog.
