I am looking for lesbian and gay teachers or former teachers who would
be willing to be interviewed for a book-to-be focusing on the lives of
l/g/bi teachers, counselors and librarians in public and private
schools, K-12. I'm especially  interested in interviewing people
who were teaching in California during the campaign for the Briggs
Amendment in the 1970's, people now teaching in Colorado, or anyone
else who is or was teaching during a political campaign that involved
anti-gay agendas. Interviews can be done by phone and are completely
confidential.  I'm a teacher educator trying to make administrators
and the general public more aware of why schools need to be safe for
l/g/bi students and teachers.
Please respond privately to KISSEN@MAINE.maine.edu.
Thanks for your help.
