heterosexism and homophobia in schools and explores how these forms

environments. The featured vignettes focus on fostering student
agency, promoting student activism, and nurturing student allies.

projects, this book offers a valuable model for educators
interested in creating safe learning communities for all students.

gender, and sexuality. "Practitioner Applications" in each chapter
to help readers apply what they have read to their classrooms.
