Living as LGBTQ+

By D. S. Strode

Book Overview

America's relationship with the LGBTQ+ community throughout history has been complicated, showing great love and great hate to people who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and more. This nonfiction social studies title for young adults examines discrimination and homophobia in the United States, the impact of the Women's Rights Movement on the lesbian community, equality laws and same-sex marriage bans, key events such as the Stonewall Riots and the AIDS crisis, and the parades, flags, and other symbols of Pride. Includes sidebars, a glossary, a timeline, and profiles of author James Baldwin and U.S. lawmaker Zooey Zephyr.
