    This video actually made me tear up a little. Rise Against collaborates with the It Gets Better Project on the band's video for the new single, "Make It Stop (September's Children)." Rise Against lead-singer Tim McIlrath wanted to shoot the video because he says anti-gay bullying hasn't been adequately addressed in the rock scene.

    Ooh, they finally made a video for the song!
    I've been obsessed with this song since it came out. I also really like the video.

    I feel so much better to be a gay teen who has dealt with homophobic harassment. I have liked Rise Against for over a year now, and I love them even more for being a rock band who cares about stopping homophobia.

    Loved this song when I first heard it. Loved it even more with the music video.
