Opportunities and Constraints

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book illustrates the relationship between politics and the way in which lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) issues are taught in schools. A case study comparison of California and Utah provides an in-depth view of the politically and culturally different landscapes that shape LGBT climates and curriculum in schools. The book explores how recent rulings on the definition of marriage, Proposition 8 and The Defense of Marriage Act influence LGBTQ youth and issues in public schools, and how are schools responding to generational shifts in ideology.
