  • Modelsofpride.Org
    modelsofpride.org | 1 WELCOME TO THE 25TH ANNUAL MODELS OF PRIDE CONFERENCE! 25 years ago, this conference was started by a small group of visionaries who believed LGBTQ youth needed a safe, supportive place to connect with each other and be inspired by role models who had gone before them. The first conference, sponsored by a commission of the Los Angeles Unified School District’s Commission on LGBT Rights, was held in 1993 at Occidental College, with about 60 youth in attendance. Today, we expect over 1,500 youth at Models of Pride and over 350 participants in the Parent and Professional Institute. We have much to celebrate. As we gather today in our opening session, we will celebrate the people who had the vision to start this conference, those who put in the time, energy and work to take an idea and make it a reality. And we will honor the two women who are credited with taking that original idea and keeping it going for the following 17 years – Virginia Uribe and Gail Rolf. Our hope for our time together is that each of you would be inspired by these visionary leaders to take the ideas, dreams and visions you have and put in the work to make them a reality. Our conference theme is: Together We Rise. We chose this theme because, in the midst of the daunting and scary political times we are living in, we want to acknowledge that, as a community, we are strong and powerful and resilient. Our community has overcome tremendous challenges, and, if we work together, we will triumph and rise above Ready to talk? our current adversaries and obstacles.

  • Gay-Straight Alliances by Carol A
    Gay-Straight Alliances by Carol A. Snively Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2004, glbtq, inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com A gay-straight alliance (GSA) can be defined as a youth-led, school- or community-based group that provides a safe, welcoming, and affirming physical and emotional space for glbtq students, as well as those who are perceived as glbtq, those who are questioning their sexual orientation and/or gender identity, children from glbtq families, and heterosexual students who want to be allies of their glbtq peers. The inclusion of straight youth in the group mission and sponsored activities of GSAs is an important distinguishing factor from early support groups for glbtq teens, and recognizes the need for a comprehensive approach to youth safety. This strategy assists glbtq youth in building a diverse network of support, teaches heterosexual youth how to be effective allies to their glbtq peers, and teaches all youth about the effects of discrimination and prejudice. GSA participation also seems to shield youth from the negative influence of verbal and physical violence, alienation, and other forms of oppression based in homophobia and heterosexism. The History of the GSA Movement in Schools Perhaps the most important precursor of the GSA movement is Los Angeles's Project 10, which is widely recognized as the first organized effort to provide systematic support and education for glbtq youth in American public schools. Originating in 1984 at Fairfax High School of the Los Angeles Unified school district, Project 10 was named after the estimate frequently (though mistakenly) attributed to sexologist Alfred Kinsey that 10% of the general population is exclusively homosexual.

It received scant serious attention when cultural histories were written about U.S. cities. All of this changed when motion pictures became perhaps the most influential art form internationally, when alternative religions came to the forefront, and when it no longer seemed merely hedonistic and mind numbing to enjoy living and working in the beneficent southern California climate.

  • Creating a Place for Lesbian and Gay Readings in Secondary English Classrooms
    Creating a Place for LesbianC HAPTER and Gay E ReadingsIGHT in Secondary English Creating a Place for Lesbian and Gay Readings in Secondary English Classrooms JIM REESE The International School of Brussels, Belgium A life lived in fear is a life half-lived. Strictly Ballroom s a cautionary note to readers, let me begin by stating my Apreferred title for this piece: “How Watching a Silly Film Initiated the Process of Rethinking My Own Approach to Reader- Response Theories.” What that title lacks in pithiness it makes up for in accuracy. For in this essay, I will return to 1993 when I first saw the Australian comedy Strictly Ballroom, which evoked in me a powerful response. In considering that response, I, as a novice teacher and a gay man, began to think about the implica- tions of the pattern of responses I have as a reader of film and literature. Why would this film strike a chord with me? Was I merely projecting my own desires as a gay reader onto the film? Or was I constructing meaning in a personal way, one that was perhaps similar to that of other gay spectators? In trying to an- swer these questions, I began to examine the place of lesbian and gay readers and readings in secondary English classrooms. We Are Everywhere? Since the Stonewall riots of 1969 and the advent of the gay rights movement, lesbian and gay visibility has increased dramatically 131 JIM REESE in the culture at large. In the academic realm, we have seen the formation of a new discipline—lesbian and gay studies—and in many quarters we can honestly say that there is a better under- standing of sexual difference.
