Welcome to the Bookstore, GLSEN's one-stop shopping place for those committed to ending anti-gay bias in schools. We are pleased to present you with a redesigned and newly expanded catalog for the 2001-2002 school year. In addition to its fresh look, this year's Bookstore catalog contains over 25 new resources that will aid you in your efforts to build more accepting school communities.

You will find the new GLSEN resources like Ending Anti-Gay Bias in Schools: A Training of Trainers Manual and the GLSEN Workbook, which helps community members to assess their schools in the area of policy, programming and practice. Hatred in the Hallways offers the first comprehensive look at the human rights abuses suffered by lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender students at the hands of their peers. Three new anthologies are the first of their kind: Revolutionary Voices, the first creative resource by and for queer and questioning youth, presents the writings and artwork of over 50 people ages 14-26; Transforming Families collects over 30 personal stories from transgendered people and their families; Troubling Intersections of Race and Color examines the unique experiences of students who are both queer and of color. Growing Up Gay and Lesbian in a Catholic High School offers perspectives and analysis on youth in religious institutions. And the latest videos - One of Them and In Their Words promise to spark classroom discussion and prompt viewers to examine their own responses and provide a safe school environment for all students.

The viewpoints expressed in GLSEN Bookstore materials reflect those of the authors/filmmakers, and do not necessarily represent those of GLSEN.

GLSEN is committed to providing affordable resources through its Bookstore. Prices of non-GLSEN produced materials reflect publisher/distributor guidelines.

		Queer 13: Lesbian and Gay Writers Recall Seventh Grade ed. by Clifford Chase A collection of essays that take us back to the doldrums of thirteen—the homerooms and hallways of our youth, from kissing parties and obsessive crushes to after-school pummeling's. It was a time of becoming who we truly are, a passage into adulthood that was as memorable as it was agonizing. Queer 13 captures both the searing, pointless punishment gay children endure and the illuminated superiority of knowledge that experience creates. Young Adult, 1998, 266 pp., paperback; was $14.00, now $10.00, #BK-QTH-CC	Secure Transaction
		Queer Kids—The Challenges and Promise for LGB Youth by Robert E. Owens Jr. Full of narratives, scholarly research, and problem-solving scenarios, Queer Kids examines the unique problems homosexual youth encounter and how they cope, survive, and find understanding amidst homophobic intolerance. This book will help gay and straight adults understand what life is like for a young gay person, as well as aid counselors, students, teachers, and other gay youth in need of advice and guidance. 1998, 355 pp. paperback; was $24.95, now $17.00, #BK-QKC-RO	Secure Transaction
		Social Work With Lesbians, Gays and Bisexuals by Katherine Van Wormer, Joel Wells & Mary Boes Brings together essential knowledge for social practice with LGB people, and incorporates this knowledge under an ecosystem-interactionist framework. Early chapters concern the social and cultural context of the LGB experience, and review social scientific research pertaining to variations in sexual behavior, family forms, and civil rights issues. Later chapters provide case material demonstrating strategies for intervention. The strengths approach provides a skills framework that relates to direct practice with all vulnerable people. The book incorporates diverse racial, as well as sexual, perspectives. 2000, 184 pp. paperback; was $29.00, now $21.00, #BK-SWW-KV	Secure Transaction
		Straight From the Heart (Discussion guide only) Produced by Woman Vision Straight From the Heart is an Academy Award nominated documentary short that addresses the issues parents face when coming to terms with having a gay or lesbian child.  It presents simple stories about real people: a police chief who talks about how proud he is of his lesbian daughter, a Mormon couple whose son is believed to be the first gay man in Idaho to have died from AIDS, and a black woman and her two lesbian daughters who have been accused of  “catching” their lesbianism from white people. Discussion guide is free, plus cost of postage	Secure Transaction
