The Lesbian in Front of the Classroom: Writings by Lesbian Teachers

Yet another book -- this is not a literary weblog, can't you tell from my grammar? -- available used from Amazon (not the one in Minneapolis, the big one). Quick description:

A Collection of Essays about the experience of lesbians in the field of teaching. This book includes for the most part discussion of coming out to the school comminity and issues of how lesbians should represent themelves.

It's from 1988, so I'm going to pretend this stat from Anna Stein's contribution

60% of those surveyed in a recent Gallup Poll objected less to gay soldiers, salespeople, priests, and doctors than to gay educators.

is no longer accurate.

And that the percentage is lower now, thank you very much.

Found the book (where else?) at Brown Elephant, which, yes, is nowhere near Shampoo-Banana, but I decided that little road trip really wasn't going to help me decide whether to move back down there for the next several years or not.

It's a slim volume, 58 pages or so. Anyone out there want it after I'm done?

Not that this material would be of interest to anyone who reads this site, or anyone I know. . .
