"I Don't Really Know What a Fair Portrayal Is and What a Stereotype Is": Pluralizing Transgender Narratives with Young Adult Literature
Ashley S. Boyd; Taylor Bereiter
English Journal, v107 n1 p13-18 2017
The authors identify the necessity of focusing on and pluralizing understandings of transgender youth experiences and trans-specific topics. This is especially important for preservice teachers, who will be the ones to have similar discussions with their own students in the future. The authors describe a series of classroom activities and presentations that engage preservice English teachers in young adult literature and allow for group discussions.
