In the US, most history classes lack content about key figures in LGBTQ+ history or the significance of certain events (if there is any mention at all). Leveraging PFLAG’s more than 50+ years of experience, this session will:

• Discuss why providing education and programs on LGBTQ+ history and culture is relevant and necessary in the workplace;
• Look at some key – and often ignored – people, places, and things from LGBTQ+ history (primarily in the United States);
• Find out how having a grasp of LGBTQ+ history can become a resource for educating, navigating conflict, and building bridges; and
• Find out where to get additional resources for continued learning.

This learning session is primarily focused on LGBTQ+ history and culture in the United States.
