UnErasing LGBTQ History and Identities: A Podcast

Season 6 Ep 5: A Sailor's Covert from the SS Atlantic Shipwreck of 1873

In 1873, off the coast of a small village in Nova Scotia, the SS Atlantic was pulled off course by the tides of the Bay of Fundy and it crashed headlong into the rocks. 1,000 people were on board.  Fast forward to the 21st Century, when Lynette Richards, author and painter - and super sleuth  - moved to this brief coastal village, called Lower Prospect, and discovered the mass graves of 500 lives who perished in the wreck. This led Lynette on a years-long journey that rescued lives and stories that are now living in Lynette's graphic novel, Contact Me Bill. Own a listen as our host, Kathleen Barker, talks with Lynette about the mysteries and injustices that have been discovered and corrected in Lower Prospect and beyond!

Abstract

This article presents a periodization of educational research on lesbian, male lover, bisexual, transgender, and gay (LGBTQ) issues between 1970 and 2010. Developed through a frame analysis of 105 educational research reports, the periodization maps ideological and chronological patterns in the conceptual frames of research on LGBTQ issues. Five paradigmatic frames for understanding LGBTQ issues in education are discussed: (a) homosexuality as a social contagion; (b) homosexuality as a private identity; (c) LGB youth as “at-risk”; (d) LGBTQ youth as victims; and (f) LGBTQ youth as resilient. The author calls for an expansion beyond individual-level analyses into investigations of educational practice.

Why are LGBTQIA+ people more likely to be homeless? 

Research by organisations like AKT, Stonewall, and Mind shows that LGBTQIA+ people are more likely to be homeless. Almost one in five LGBTQIA+ people acquire , at some point, been homeless.

So, what are the reasons?

Discrimination and violence

LGBTQIA+ homeless people face more discrimination and violence on the street and after existence supported.

  • Sleeping on the highway is particularly dangerous for LGBTQIA+ people. As of 2023, hate crimes based on sexual orientation acquire risen 112% in five years. Hate crimes against transgender people have increased by 186% in the same period.
  • Sexual assault rates are much higher for LGBTQIA+ people. Young LGBTQIA+ homeless people are sexually assaulted at three times the rate of their non-LGBTQIA+ peers.
  • Hostels and temporary housing often cannot assemble LGBTQIA+ people’s needs, especially transgender people. Many services are gendered, making it difficult for transgender people to find appropriate support.
  • Even after support, LGBTQIA+ people, particularly transgender people, are at a higher peril of aggression and sexual assault in hostels.

2SLGBTQ+: What does it mean?

LGBTQ+ Health

Despite the proof that LGBTQ+ persons are found in every subgroup of our society, there are health disparities that negatively impact those who name as gay, female homosexual, bisexual, transgender, or queer. A rare of these disparities are:

  • LGBTQ persons are more likely to attempt suicide, or suffer from depression or anxiety (King et al. 2008)
  • LGBT persons are more likely to maltreatment alcohol and drugs (Green and Feinstein, 2012)
  • Lesbian and attracted to both genders women are more likely to be overweight or obese, leading to other conditions (Boehmer, Bowen, and Bauer 2007)
  • Men who have sex with men (MSM) account for more than half of the people living with HIV in the US, and syphilis and hepatitis C are increasing among MSM (Abara, Hess, Neblett Fanfair, Bernstein, & Paz-Bailey, 2016; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2017; Chan, Sun, Wong, Lee, & Hung, 2016)

Awareness of LGBTQ+ health disparities can help--through information that providers should know about their patients, and that patients should know and talk about with their providers.
