One Teacher in Ten in the New Millennium: LGBT Educators Speak Out About What's Gotten Better . . . and What Hasn't

In this week's episode, Nancy, Misty, and Kathryn reflect with Kevin Moore (@MrMooreGeo), and our conversation begins with a discussion about heteronormative privilege. Kevin also shares ways educators can step in to support LGBTQ+ colleagues and students.

Kevin's article The Invisible Knapsack Revisited: Being a Gay Teacher in a World of Heterosexual Privilege will be published in The Multicultural Perspectives Journal.
