Homophobia in Canadian schools - podcast

lizjmeyer's picture

I am just posting a brief entry to share with you a very interesting podcast done on the topic of homophobia in Canadian high schools. This was a graduate student project that I was interviewed for, and I think the final product is quite interesting and well done. The focus is on one student who filed a human rights complaint against his school and used the financial award from that case to start up an diversity education initiative called Jer's Vision.
