An education system that recognizes a multicultural world can give students a better education --> embrace multiculturalism not marginalize it
"Our analysis of this literature reveals three distinct theoretical and pedagogical moves in
this scholarship: the need to confront homophobia, the desire to be inclusive of LGBT people, and the possibility of using queer theory to break down the homo/hetero binary as a constraining mode of thinking about identity and agency."
Terms:
- Heteronormativity: umbrella concept that refers to the set of cultural values and practices that presumes that LGBT sexual identities are abnormal.
- Homophobia: refers to overt, intended acts that directly challenge or threaten the existence of LBGT people and practices.
- Heterosexism: refers to more subtle and often unintentional acts that reflect heternormativity.
