BEVERLY, MA —Beverly students and adults are invited to a virtual screening of the cyberbullying documentary "The Upstanders," which will be followed by a discussion and anonymous Q&A session on April 26. Be Healthy Beverly and Minding Your Mind are presenting the free screening of the 56-minute documentary that shows the stories and viewpoints of the bullies, victims, bystanders and family members. "Our goal is to highlight the importance of empathy and resilience to transforming attitudes and actions, and give kids the confidence and tools to go from bystander to 'Upstander,'" organizers said. It is recommended that viewers of the documentary be at least 10 years old. Those interested in attending the virtual event can register here.
