dc.description.abstractBeing Queer: LGBTQ History, Social Movements and Cultural Evolution Throughout Time in North America is a comprehensive paper that draws on the history of LGBTQ movements and social/cultural acceptance throughout time in North America starting with the Stonewall Riots of 1969. This paper examines such topics as the abovementioned Stonewall Riots, to the Canadian decriminalization/recriminalization of 1969, followed by homosexuality within the Canadian Military, religion, and homosexuality to LGBTQ students’ lives within the Canadian education system and, finally, pride semiotics. This paper found that while many important steps have been taken forward with the likes of the Stonewall Riots and the elimination of the ban on homosexuals within the Canadian Military, to the ordination of LGBTQ ministers within the United Church of Canada, we see a step taken back when it comes to LGBTQ students and the education system within Canada. Being Queer: LGBTQ History, Social Movements and Cultural Evolution Throughout Time in North America will take you on a historical and social ride throughout the LGBTQ communities relatively short, but strong fight for justice, acceptance, and freedom.
