Men's football has an LGBTQ+ problem. Too many people are excluded from enjoying it. But we can solve it. And here's the first step. This week, on Out and Out Football, we're launching a survey for LGBTQ+ people to share their experiences on football. The first step in working out how to solve a problem is properly understanding the problem. By taking part in the short survey, you'll be playing a fundamental part in changing football. So to any LGBTQ+ people in my network – whether you're into football or not – will you have your say by taking part in the survey now? https://lnkd.in/exwBDpUE

I know it's often helpful to have resources to send to friends, family, teachers and administrators about how to make/keep schools safe places for LGBTQ students in a time of increasing attacks. Here's a short talk exactly on that topic that I hope can be a useful quick primer on the current state of of things for LGBTQ students and how to protect and empower them. https://lnkd.in/gN8Z5eSU

Role models matter. Creating safe spaces in sports and business matters. Inclusion matters.

Students deserve to feel safe at school – and their belonging and well-being on campus directly affects their ability to succeed academically. At Point, we are empowering students to collectively shape a future that upholds the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion for all. https://lnkd.in/g6i59E-u

An interesting tweet about the gentrification of queer spaces in America. What are your thoughts on this issue? Some have argued that the goal should be to create an inclusive space, but something is lost when the LGBTQ become minorities in their own space. The LGBTQ community, particularly in science, is a very marginalized and extremely underrepresented community. If they want an inclusive space, some have argued that the cishet community should be the one to create it. What are your thoughts? Comment below 👇
