For K-12 educators who want to teach LGBTQ-inclusive history, or create LGBTQ-inclusive classrooms, getting started can be confusing – and quite often prompts some fear. (What if I say or do the wrong thing? What if there is pushback? And where do I even begin?) Our Pilot Season and Season One feature K-12 educators who share their experiences from the classroom and provide real-world advice and reasonable, practical strategies to guide you. In Season Two, you will meet a few history-makers featured in our Intersections & Connections curriculum and hear some fascinating - and empowering - backstories! Season Three is full of fascinating history that has been hiding in plain sight and a reminder that we are all surrounded by LGBTQ history! Visit UnErased.org to learn how History UnErased is putting LGBTQ history in its rightful place - the classroom.

Season 3 Ep 2: William Dorsey Swann
We have learned, throughout the course of history, that it is often incidental acts - by everyday people - that prove to be historic, consequential actions.
In this episode, Kathleen will introduce you to someone whose story needs to be told, deserves to be told, and for a variety of reasons - especially today.

Bonus Episode: Monumental Misinformation
We live in a nation that commemorates historical events with monuments and markers, yet so many of the monuments we visit are ripe with misinformation, disinformation, and erasure. And once literally built into stone and metal, those myths are very hard to dismantle.
How can we correct this problem? We took a road trip to explore some historical monuments that actually embody a much larger - and more complex story. Jump in, buckle up, and welcome to our podcast on monumental misinformation!
