When should schools start discussing same-sex relationships and gender identity? How can we ensure LGBTQI+ students feel supported and have access to the right resources? In this thought-provoking episode, we dive into these essential questions with the help of our special guest co-host, Dr. Byron Green, Vice President of St Pete Pride.

Together, we explore a Public Religion Research Institute survey, share our personal experiences, and discuss the importance of early education on LGBTQ+ topics. We examine the appropriate grade level for such discussions, the crucial role of the school nurse or guidance counselor, and the impact of Angelique's conversations with her teachers in the 90s on her decisions about her own body. Our conversation highlights the importance of providing knowledge and understanding in today's society.

Finally, join us as we get to know Dr. Byron Green and his vision for creating a more inclusive space within St Pete Pride. We chat about his journey from working in higher education to equity work full time, exciting events happening this month like the Protect the Community Benefit Show and the Shades of Pride Festival, and the importance of making sure everyone in the community is represented. Don't miss this insightful discussion that will leave you with a deeper understanding of the significance of LGBTQ+ education and support in schools.
