Making History

While reading some of the current news articles in the NBC news feeds, I came across an article titled "Transgender Homecoming Queen Makes History." I recommend reading this article because it shares with us the importance of being ourselves regardless of race, gender, class or sexual orientation. Last week we spent some time discussing the LGBTQ community and to further continue this discussion, some of the questions I pose are the following: How do we educate our students about the LGBTQ community? How do we create environments that are inclusive of every community without putting them on the spot thus creating opportunity for bullying?
