A brief introduction

           In a world that seems to be full of hatred, malice, and injustice, the time to promote and enforce equality within the four walls of a classroom is long overdue.  As future educators, it is important for us to realize that our job is far more complex than just teaching content, but rather ensuring that our students are accepting of everyone regardless of their sexual orientation, culture, race, gender, etc.  This blog is an informative piece for preservice teachers, current teachers, etc., that value the importance of creating an inclusive and accepting classroom.  Although the main focus of this blog includes ways in which we can include LGBTQ+ themes into the classroom, we will also be discussing why it is not included as well as what we can do in order to make all students feel understood, appreciated, and accepted.
