Queer History in the Classroom – Blog-posts and resources.

Hi Everyone! As I have written a few posts now about teaching LGBTQ+/Queer History on this website and elsewhere, I thought it would be useful to collect them all together on a single post.

The blog posts I have written on this topic are below in chronological order.

I have also written about Queer History for the History Worksop Online Journal and have spoken about my approach as part of EuroClio’s podcast series on gender and sexuality in the history curriculum. The links to these can be found below.
