Schools should empower, not erase. Compulsory heterosexuality pressures students and teachers to conform. By challenging bias, using inclusive language and advocating for #queer representation, we can create affirming spaces. How do you make your school more inclusive? Drop a comment. #2SLGBTQIA

Stereotypes exist for a reason—but that doesn’t mean they should define us. In my classroom, we unpack where they come from, their impact (good & bad), and how we can use that knowledge to create change. Let’s challenge the narrative! #TeachingWhileQueer #Queer #QueerEducators #LGBTQ #2SLGBTQIA
