From LSE Few LGBTQ science and engineering instructors come out to students, despite potential benefits LGBTQ science and engineering instructors rarely come out to their undergraduate students, but students do not react negatively and surprisingly report higher rapport when an instructor comes out https://lnkd.in/gyyUNfEg

𝐉𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐧 11 𝐎𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐛𝐞𝐫 @ 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩 '𝐓𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐐𝐮𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐄𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧' The Netherlands is known globally as having been at the forefront of queer emancipation. However, studies have shown that compared to many European countries queer rights and acceptance in 2024 are relatively weak and still in decline. How do we reverse the tide and re-establish our position as a leader in queer emancipation? In this lecture, we will decode the concepts of homonationalism, homonormativity, and homocapitalism to understand how LGBTQIA inclusion is limited to specific identities. We will also examine why and how queer individuals with intersectional identities may face unique obstacles in both society and the queer community. Through this, we aim to explore paths toward meaningful inclusion. Register now via https://lnkd.in/eFRnqxsM #trueu #delft #lgbtqia #lgbt #queer #queeremancipation #queerrights

🌈 Celebrating LGBTQIA History Month: Embracing Diversity, Honouring Struggles, and Paving the Way for Equity 🌈 As we step into February, let's take a moment to reflect, celebrate, and honour LGBTQIA History Month. This month is not just about recognising the triumphs and challenges faced by the LGBTQIA community, but also a reminder of the ongoing journey towards a world that values equity, inclusion, and diversity. 🏳️🌈 Did you know that the first LGBTQIA rights organisation in the United States, the Society for Human Rights, was founded in Chicago in 1924? It's a testament to the long-standing fight for equality, a struggle that continues to inspire us today. Let's also shine a light on incredible individuals who have shaped history against all odds. Marsha P. Johnson, a Black transgender activist, played a pivotal role in the Stonewall riots, sparking the modern LGBTQIA rights movement. Harvey Milk, the first openly gay elected official in California, paved the way for LGBTQIA representation in politics. These stories remind us of the strength and resilience of the LGBTQIA community, a community that has fought for basic human rights and continues to strive for a world where everyone can live authentically without fear of discrimination. However, LGBTQIA History Month is not just about the past—it's a call to action for the present and the future. As we celebrate the progress made, we must acknowledge the work that still needs to be done. Challenges persist, from discriminatory laws to societal biases, and it's crucial that we stand together in the pursuit of true equity. Every month should be an opportunity to champion diversity, elevate unheard voices, and foster a workplace culture that embraces everyone, regardless of their sexual orientation, gender identity, or expression. Let's make a commitment to educate ourselves and others, challenge stereotypes, and advocate for policies that promote equality. By doing so, we contribute to creating a world where everyone can thrive, irrespective of who they are or whom they love. Today, I recommend watching Panti Bliss - The necessity of normalizing queer love. Enjoy. Let this month be a catalyst for positive change, not just within our workplaces but in society at large. Happy LGBTQIA History Month, and here's to a future where love, acceptance, and equality prevail! 🌈💙 #LGBTQIAHistoryMonth #EqualityForAll #InclusionMatters

Featuring nearly 200 images curated from historical archives, organizations, amateur and professional photographers, and the author's own collection, LGBTQ Denver tells a visual story about a midsize Western city's evolution from its repressed and closeted past to its status today as one of the most LGBTQ-friendly cities in North America.
