Produktbeschreibung
Some gay and lesbian teachers hide their sexual orientation even in schools protected by policy and legislation. Duane Lecky describes how he used print and electronic media to recruit urban, rural, Muslim, Catholic, closeted, and politically active gay and lesbian teachers to tell their stories.
