Queer History A to Z
Queer History A to Z: 100 Years of LGBTQ+ Activism | Robin Stevenson
1 post
An essential resource for young readers that details the people, events and places that have shaped queer history in North America. In this accessible resource, middle-grade readers can learn about the history of LGBTQ+ activism in North America. Presented in an A to Z format, the entries cover a broad range of topics related to the fight for equality, such as “A Is for Activism,” “P Is for Pride” and “S Is for Stonewall Inn.” The book provides a rich hundred-year-long history and covers current topics relevant for kids today, such as banned books and human rights for transgender people. Young activists will find themselves reflected in the stories of trans activist Gavin Grimm, the history of gay-straight alliances and much more. This inspiring and much-needed book provides an accessible introduction to an important topic.

May Reads!

I tagged the Queer History book because I rarely see Canadian queer history featured. It was a great book. Most of these books deserve an entire review of their own. I technically haven't finished A Sense of Shifting as of this post, but it balanced out the image. I hate baseball and Cat Sebastian still delivered.

The Monk and the Mermaid was okay, Star Trek Cats was for Trekkies only, and Ancient Egypt was a surprise disappointment.
