Politics In Art: LGBT+ History Month
These packs for primary and secondary students are designed to support schools and those working in educational settings to celebrate LGBT+ History Month.
LGBT+ History Month are grateful to John Yates-Harold for producing this resource alongside Schools OUT UK, the founders of LGBT+ History Month.
LGBT+ History Month is an opportunity for LGBT+ people to claim their past, celebrate our present and create our future. We hope that our allies will join in and discover the amazing things that LGBT+ people have accomplished down the ages.
The theme for 2022, political artists, is timely as we see so much grassroots political work being done with Black Lives Matter, Me Too and climate change movements. Many young people are engaged in wanting to challenge the status quo, so giving them some examples of who has gone before can be both inspiring and educational.
Using this pack will enable you to ‘usualise’ LGBT+ people’s lives, helping you tackle bullying, homophobia, lesbophobia, biphobia and transphobia.
