Week 9

We had a special guest this evening, Dr. Anne Rene Elsbree, who did an outstanding job leading the discussion and activities for how to disrupt hompophobia.
If you wanted to look at the wiki she created, that included the PSAs from GLSEN, click here
I hope everyone walked away from class with a new awareness of the issue and some strategies to disrupt homophobia in your classrooms (and your personal lives).

For week 10, we will be using Nieto's chapter 3 and the Grant & Sleeter reading from the course reader. Please bring your text to class and your copy of the Grant & Sleeter reading.
Also, I will go over the School Diversity Assignment.
