Here's Why People Are Wearing Safety Pins

If you see people wearing stray safety pins on their shirts it’s not a fashion mishap.

In light of the fear that has spread after Brexit and the result of the US Election men and women have taken to wearing safety pins in solidarity with minorities and people in the LGBTQ community as a symbol that they’re ‘safe’ people to be around.
Allison, the woman who started it all, told BuzzFeed News: “I thought about something that would cost nothing and had no political affiliation. Something that says, ‘I am a safe space, you can sit next to me, you can talk to me, you can ask me for a help.”

Now thousands of people across the world have shared pics of them donning their safety pins on social media.
