gerri s.

Vaccaro (human development and family studies, U. of Rhode Island), Gerri August (educational studies, Rhode Island College), and Megan S. Kennedy (education, Westfield State U., Massachusetts) explain the overt and subtle discrimination against sexual minorities in schools and communities, and suggest how to alleviate it. They look at the marginalization of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) people, LGBT identity, changing family from exclusion to nurturance, and inside and outside the classroom walls.
