Ashp Podcast

In this episode of Making Queer History Public, we talk to Tristan, a high school student who worked with us to develop a brand new collection on our website, Social History for Every Classroom (SHEC). In Their Own Words: Crossing Gender in the 18th and 19th Centuries is a collection containing primary and secondary sources where gender-non conforming people spoke of their experiences and relationship with their own gender expression and identity. Tristan then discusses his experiences learning about LGBTQ+ history in the high school classroom during a time when curriculums are being attacked across the country.
