You can find out more about LGBT+ History Month, and explore resources at:
- lgbtplushistorymonth.co.uk/lgbt-history...
- www.stonewall.org.uk/resources/lg...
- feministvoices.com/exhibits/que...
It is particularly important for those of us situated in Psychology to reflect on the impact and history of our discipline concerning LGBT+ history and equality; as it is only 36 years since the WHO stopped treating homosexuality as a mental illness and 39 since it was fully removed from the DSM.
Schools Out launched LGBT+ History Month in 2005 to mark the abolition of Section 28. It serves as a reminder that the progress made towards LGBTQ+ equality is recent, and, in a time of turbulence, that the fight for equality is far from over.
February is LGBT+ History Month, and this year it focuses on the theme of Science and Innovation 🌈🌟 LGBT+ people have always shaped scientific progress even if history hasn’t always recorded their contributions, or has tried to erase them after the fact.
