  • 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.

  • The Front Runner Patricii Nell Warren. Coming Out, Czyli Zwycięstwo I Koniec Tragedii1
    The Front Runner Patricii Nell Warren. Coming out, czyli zwycięstwo i koniec tragedii1 https://doi.org/10.51897/interalia/UKEA5086 Mateusz Świetlicki Uniwersytet Wrocławski ORCID: 0000-0001-7009-3837 W niniejszym artykule chciałbym przybliżyć czytelnikom nieznaną w naszym regionie anglojęzyczną twórczość Patricii Nell Warren na przykładzie jej najbardziej znanego utworu The Front Runner (1974), powieści, w której autorka porusza kwestie homofobii i mizoginii w sporcie, jak również różne doświadczenia ujawniania homo- seksualnej orientacji dwóch pokoleń mężczyzn. Biorąc pod uwagę koncepcję potrójnej mimesis Paula Ricoeura, skupię się na relacji między własnym doświadczeniem autorki a narracyjną problematyką powieści, jak również wieloznaczną recepcją utworu wśród przedstawicieli społeczności LGBTQ+. Pragnę pokazać, że w kontekście amerykańskim The Front Runner może pełnić rolę tekstu kultury i medium pamięci, a dla nowych europejskich czytelników stanowić potencjalne źródło pamięci protetycznej, dostarczające literacką reprezentację doświad- czenia ujawnienia orientacji homoseksualnej i zmieniających się postaw społecznych wobec niebinarnych ról płciowych i nieheteroseksualności zaraz po zamieszkach w Stonewall i przed epidemią AIDS. Pragnę też zauwa- żyć, że zapoznanie polskich czytelników z prozą Warren może stać się impulsem do queerowej reinterpretacji wcześniejszej poezji autorki Tragedii pszczół. Słowa klucze: homofobia, mizoginia, heteronormatywność, literatura gejowska, literatura amerykańska, mimesis, pamięć Before coming out of the closet and publishing a series of successful gay novels, Patricia Nell Warren was known as Patricia Kilina, wife of a Ukrainian émigré writer George Tarnawsky. Her early poetry, written in Ukrainian, includes numerous references to non-traditional gender roles which she further explored in her anglophone novels. The Front Runner (1974) was published when Warren had already divorced her husband and came out of the closet.

  • 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.

  • The Emergence, Development and Survival of Four Lesbian and Gay Archives
    The Emergence, Development and Survival of Four Lesbian and Gay Archives by Rebecka Taves Sheffield A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information Mark S. Bonham Centre for Sexual Diversity Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Rebecka Taves Sheffield 2015 The Emergence, Development and Survival of Four Lesbian and Gay Archives Rebecka Taves Sheffield Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Information Mark S. Bonham Centre for Sexual Diversity Studies University of Toronto 2015 ABSTRACT Lesbian and gay archives, particularly those established within the context of the homophile, gay liberation, and lesbian feminist movements, serve as social movement organizations (SMOs). That is, they are organizational and administrative members of activist communities that acquire, manage, and share resources for the purpose of collective action for social change. Archives are nevertheless absent from literature on social movements and social movement theory. This project was designed to expand on current research in the fields of archival studies, social movement studies, and sexuality studies to better understand the experiences of lesbian and gay archives. A multiple case study was conducted at four community grown archives: The Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives, the ONE National Gay and Lesbian Archives, The June L. Mazer Lesbian Archives, and the Lesbian Herstory Archives. Site visits took place over six months in 2013 and 2014, during which time interviews were conducted with 33 community archivists, volunteers, and community partners. In addition, more than 20,000 pages of organizational records related to the founding and development of these archives were reviewed. By tracing the emergence, development, and resource struggles of four lesbian and gay archives, this dissertation shows how these organizations have been shaped by broader movement goals, local geographies, socio-political structures, and the particular interests and energies of those who have nurtured their collections over the years.
