Queer the School Library
Mairi
As we reflect on the anniversary of Section 28's repeal (in England, it was 2000 in Scotland) we can't help feeling a lot of school library's are still hella straight. SO here are some books we recommend to make up for decades of systemic erasure, and to bring queer joy & representation to (all) kids!
Think your school could do better with inclusivity? Check out the amazing work at Tie!
