Defusing Queerphobia in the Classroom
Update: 2023-12-13
Description
In this episode, university arts educators share practical strategies for defusing homophobia and transphobia in the classroom while accounting for our increasingly polarized political realities across the U.S. Rather than combatting or fighting queerphobia, they present approaches they have used to keep students engaged in dialogue and promote inclusive, respectful classroom culture.
The mini presentations feature:
Michael Osinski, “Reframing and Revising Politicized Language”
Lucas Skjaret, “Keeping the Faith: Queer Mediations/Meditations at a Parochial University”
Sidney Monroe Williams, “Are you a Gay Black or a Black Gay Professor? Butch Queen Disidentifications within Academia”
Winter Phong, “Teaching in Red States, IDEAS for Change”
Ann Elizabeth Armstrong, “CLARA: Tools for Responding to Hate Speech.”
This episode was recorded at the 2023 Association for Theatre in Higher Education Conference. “Defusing Queerphobia in the Classroom” was co-sponsored by the LGBTQ+ and Disability, Theatre, and Performance (DTAP) Focus Groups.
