Rainbow LaGuardia Showcases LGBT Stories Beyond the Classroom

Read my review of this exhibition at The LGBT Review:

In fact, Rainbow LaGuardia quietly surveys how educational frameworks are only as productive as their capacity for truth-telling. On each participant’s webpage are excerpts from their oral history interview where they share stories often left out of the dominant narrative of what it means to be LGBT. In a borough with a history of tension toward LGBT inclusion in schools, this exhibition is a significant milestone.
