Book Reviews of Becoming Visible: A Reader in Gay and Lesbian History for High School and College Students
Book Review: Lesbian/Gay History for everyday people
Summary: 5 Stars
I commend Jennings for his selections. I found every single one of them interesting. Even though I had read several of the selections in other books, Mr. Jennings' comments prefacing each selection shed new light on them and made them fresh reading. Also commendable is the way he covers the issue of natural sexuality vs. social constructionism. Yes, the issue is as dry as it sounds, but Mr. Jennings does an admirable job of giving the salient point of each side and then moving on.
A list of questions and activities follows each chapter. I found these very intelligent and thought-provoking and value-added.
