Watch STOMP Out Bullying's 2026 Culture Shock

NEW YORK -- For the 8th year, STOMP Out Bullying hosted Culture Shock - a panel discussion that brings together voices from entertainment, sports, and media to share real experiences around bullying, cyberbullying, discrimination, identity, life challenges, and personal growth.

Panelists shared their experiences as youths who were bullied. This impactful event was livestreamed to schools nationwide and beyond.

Students across the country heard from a panel that brings real experiences, honesty, and perspective into the conversation.

It is a chance for students to see what it looks like to speak openly about identity, challenges, and growth and to carry those conversations into their own communities.

Celebrity host Jeannie Mai moderated this year's edition. Panelists included actress Logan Browning, actress and dancer Monique Coleman, actor and voice actor Jack Dylan Grazer, and actor, singer, and musician Booboo Stewart.

The event is part of National Culture Week, which provides an opportunity for young people to share and learn from one another's diverse cultural backgrounds and experiences.

The discussion educates students on homophobia, racism, and hatred, and provide schools with a template for encouraging conversations throughout Culture Week and the remainder of the school year.

Culture Shock is an annual event dedicated to promoting cultural diversity, kindness, and inclusivity within educational settings. Through engaging discussions, activities, and resources, Culture Shock aims to empower educators and students to embrace diversity and foster a culture of acceptance and empathy.

STOMP Out Bullying is the leading national nonprofit dedicated to changing the culture for all students.
