So I don't do a lot of book reviews on here, but I just finished "Safe Spaces: Making Schools and Communities Welcoming to LGBTQ Youth" and I have to say it's fabulous!
The book addresses the importance of inclusive language and pedagogy in the classroom and the community of all grade levels. It has reflective questions, suggestions on how to implement changes, and interesting stories about what teachers are doing to make their classrooms safer. It's a quick read, so if you have a spare couple of hours, Antoinette Gomes in the Unity Center has a copy you can borrow.
Enjoy :)
Question for you:
How could you change a small part of your language or actions to make your classroom/workplace more accepting of LGBT individuals?
