In this four-day summer camp, learners will explore the history of LGBTQ people and rights in American history. The camp will primarily consist of lectures with slides, including photos and videos, with an emphasis placed on learner discussion. Monday: We will begin by looking at language. We will talk about the limitations of modern language to explore queer history before the twentieth century. Terms such as lesbian, homosexual, bisexual, gay, transgender, queer, straight, cisgender, non-binary, and Two-Spirit will be defined, along with a look at when they entered the English language. We will then move into exploring the diversity of North American Indigenous nations' views on gender and same-sex relationships in the Pre-Colonial Era. We will look at views on gender and same-sex relationships colonizers brought to America, and how those ideas were forced upon various Indigenous cultures as part of colonization. We will further explore how forced European norms impacted the traditional cultures and governments of some Indigenous nations. Finally, we will look at views on gender and same-sex relationships in West African societies before the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade, and what cultural ideas the people kidnapped, enslaved, and forced to journey to America might have brought to the continent. We will end Day 1 by looking at the life of Publick Universal Friend and making a visit to Merrymount Colony. Day 2: We will look at gender diversity, same sex relationships, "schoolgirl smashes," and "Boston marriages" in eighteenth and nineteenth-century America. In the lecture and discussion will be women who served as Revolutionary War and Civil War soldiers, We'wha's meeting with U.S. President Grover Cleveland, American actress Charlotte Cushman who often played male roles on stage and "married" Rosalie Sully, and writers such as Walt Whitman. Consideration will be given to the lives of historical figures from Emily Dickinson to Abraham Lincoln and their passionate correspondences with same-sex friends. We'll explore the question: Did people just express themselves differently in the 1800s, or were these romantic relationships? We will end Day 2 with a look at the life of William Dorsey Swan who went from being enslaved to recognition as America's first drag queen. Day 3: On Day 3, we move into the twentieth century and the founding of the first U.S. gay rights organization, the Society of Human Rights in 1924. We'll follow the history through to the founding of the Mattachine Society in 1950, and meet Christine Jorgensen, who became one of the first visible transgender people when she spoke about her experiences to the media. From there, we'll look at protests, riots, and demonstrations for LGBTQ rights throughout the 1960s and 1970s, including the Compton Cafeteria Riot, Julius' Bar "Sip-In," the Stonewall Inn Uprising, the first Gay Liberation Day March, and the evolution of Pride parades and celebrations. We'll meet Marsha Johnson and Sylvia Rivera and learn about their work to found Street Transvestites Action Revolutionaries (STAR), as well as Harvey Milk, the first openly gay person to be elected to public office. Day 4: On our final day, we'll follow the rise of the AIDS/HIV pandemic and its impact on LGBTQ people and activism in the 1980s and 1990s. We'll learn about ACT UP and how the group used direct action to bring attention to AIDS-related issues. Transgender Day of Remembrance was founded in 1998 and Transgender Day of Visibility in 2009. We'll look at the origins of both, as well as the impact of the 2016 Pulse nightclub shooting on LGBTQ history. President Joe Biden signed the Respect for Marriage Act into law in 2022, but we'll look at the long road of activism that led to that moment including the 2015 "Obergefell v. Hodges" Supreme Court ruling that made marriage equality U.S. law. We'll wrap up with an overview of current events.
學習目標
The learning goal of this camp is for students to become more familiar with LGBTQ American history as a way of interpreting current events impacting LGBTQ rights in the United States.
其他詳情
父母的引導和規範
The content covered in this camp will include colonization, slavery, genocide, war, disease, death, oppression, police brutality, sexual orientation, gender diversity, and marriage equality. The historical realities of U.S. history are disturbing to almost all students, but may be especially difficult for some learners. Please consider whether your learner is ready to grapple with this content before enrolling. There will also be mentions of sexual assault, sexual exploitation, and alcohol consumption in the content. These mentions will not be graphic and will be discussed in as age-appropriate manner as possible. Exploring American history always leads to connections with current events. Students will be encouraged to make these connections and this will lead to conversations about current political debates. My objective when this happens is to facilitate a civil, thoughtful, learner-led conversation in which students arrive at connections through their own analysis.
供應清單
While not a requirement for the course, students are encouraged to read Michael Bronski's "A Queer History of the United States for Young People" before, during, or after the class.

I have a master of arts degree in American history, and bachelor of arts degrees in political science, English, and communications with a journalism emphasis. I am lead teacher at The Foster Woods Folk School, which focuses on humanities education within an ecosocial justice framework aimed at celebrating and improving our connections as a global community of humans and non-humans living on Planet Earth. In this role, I work with learners of all ages with a primary focus of working with learners in grades three through 12. I was the director of a social justice center for three years during which time I routinely taught about and facilitated conversations about historical and current political events for both teen and adults participants. Before that, I was a newspaper editor and reporter for 15 years. I have been teaching history, social studies, and English Language Arts classes for several years.
