Resources for Educators
Making Gay History strives to create a world where everyone understands, respects, and honors the experiences and histories of LGBTQ+ people by providing engaging and accessible entry points to their largely hidden history.
Lesson Materials for Teachers
As part of a Making Gay History (MGH) / National Education Association (NEA) Teaching Fellowship, NEA teachers across a range of disciplines developed lesson plans and supporting resources centered on podcast episodes drawn from the Making Gay History podcast. The lessons were created to provide other teachers with the context and tools to bring MGH archival audio into their middle and high school classrooms.
