20th Century LGBTQ+ Americans: the Experience of Difference: MULTIMEDIA ANTHOLOGY- The Own Your History® Collection
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

This resource  looks at experiences of LGBTQ+ Americans, focusing on the 20th century and after: how their differences have been accepted or rejected by society, and the extent to which they have shared in the rights and opportunities afforded to straight Americans. The United States has always been a very diverse society, albeit dominated by straight white men of Western European descent.  In many ways, American history is largely about how the US as a country has dealt with this diversity and with human difference, and that continues to be the case today.   This resource thus seeks to inform contemporary debate, to help students and adults understand that variations in gender and sexuality are part of the human condition that should be more widely discussed and understood. And that these differences do not provide a basis for denying these Americans the American promise of full legal equality and opportunity without discrimination.
