505 0  Pride and professionalism : the dilemmas of gay and 
       lesbian teachers -- "Like a fox guarding the henhouse" : 
       the history of LGBTs in the teaching profession -- 
       Splitters, knitters, and quitters : pathways to identity 
       making -- Dangerous disclosures : the legal, cultural, and
       embodied considerations of coming out -- "A bizarre or 
       flamboyant character" : homonormativity in the classroom -
       - Racialized discourses of homophobia: using race to 
       predict and discredit discrimination -- From gay-friendly 
       to queer-friendly : new possibilities for schools. 
520    "How do gay and lesbian teachers grapple with their 
       professional and sexual identities at work, given that 
       these identities are constructed as mutually exclusive, 
       even indeed as mutually opposed? Using rich interview and 
       ethnographic materials from Texas and California, School's
       Out explores how teachers struggle to create a classroom 
       persona that balances who they are and what's expected of 
       them in a climate of pervasive homophobia. Catherine 
       Connell takes readers into the private and professional 
       lives of gay and lesbian educators, along the way 
       developing the innovative concept of racialized homophobia,
       which thwarts challenges to sexual injustices in schools. 
       She also uses her own experiences as one point of 
       intersection with the ideas in this volume. Connell's 
       exploration of the tension between the rhetoric of gay 
       pride and the professional ethic of discretion 
       insightfully connects and considers other complicating 
       factors, from local law and politics to race and gender 
       privilege. With a sense of ethnographic verve and an 
       engaging authorial presence, School's Out is essential 
       reading for specialists and students of queer studies, 
       gender studies, and educational politics."--Provided by
