In this lesson, students will revisit the life of James Baldwin, an African-American literary writer and critic, as well as an icon for civil and gay rights.
We each have a part to play, a role uniquely ours each day. I’d raised my hand often enough and spoke about equity and LGBT rights during my years in Minnesota’s Anoka-Hennepin School District to convince myself I was accomplishing the role I’d chosen when I decided to teach.
This toolkit suggests one way to study the inclusiveness of your school’s climate for LGBT students and athletes. The toolkit includes suggestions for assembling a committee, possible school survey questions and follow-up steps based on the results.
This toolkit for “Wanted: Playground Buddy” provides suggestions and activities to help students and educators add a Buddy Bench to the playground and make their school more inclusive.
