A case study comparison of California and Utah provides an in-depth view of the politically and culturally different landscapes that shape LGBT climates and curriculum in schools. The book explores how recent rulings on the definition of marriage, Proposition 8 and The Defense of Marriage Act influence LGBTQ youth and issues in public schools, and how are schools responding to generational shifts in ideology.This book will synthesize and extend theoretical frameworks to describe, analyze, and interpret the shifting landscapes in public education as they relate to LGBTQ issues in schools. Through queer theory and democratic education theory, the author reflects on his journey as a gay male and provides recommendations to public schools and teacher educators about socially just ways to create inclusive LGBTQ curriculum.
