This episode marks a departure from our usual format as we discuss the issues faced by LGBTQ students. Through several conversations, we discuss how we can make our classrooms and schools a safe place for this at-risk community; how to approach establishing a GSA in a school; the impact that a religious environment has on LGBTQ students; the truth about what they face on a day to day basis.
