And the best news about this whole thing? Teen Mom 2's Kailyn Lowry is one of the panelists taking part! Of getting involved with the "Look Different" campaign, Kail said:
“After seeing racism first hand being in an interracial marriage, I have made it a personal mission to make everybody equal no matter their size, shape, color or creed. I have tried to bring awareness to equality and would like to continue to make noise in an effort to erase racism/sexism and anything else ‘Look Different’ fights for. Whether we look different or love different, we're all people.”
