LGBTQIA+ advocacy is anti-racist work. This June, The Institute for Anti-Racist Education is thrilled to host the panel discussion “Creating Loving & Affirming Schools for LGBTQIA+ Students.” We know that ongoing anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation and restrictive curriculum policies threaten the safety of LGBTQIA+ students and drastically limit their learning experience, as well as those of their classmates. In celebration of Pride Month, this panel will focus on the importance of going beyond inclusion to affirmation with LGBTQIA+ school-based supports. The panel will feature classroom educators and policy advocates who will share their visions for truly loving and affirming schools and explore the steps and strategies needed to create them into being.
