Kids Explain… from SOY H.E.A.T.

SOY H.E.A.T. (Human Rights. Equity. Access. Team) have developed some new videos to help address key issues that LGBTQ2S youth experience. These 3 educational videos cover the topics of pronoun usage, intersectionality and allyship, and  are presented in a conversation format between youth, tweens, and children. The project demonstrates the power and knowledge that young people have, and that they are themselves teachers (especially to each other)!

This project aims to challenge adults who often complicate explanations unnecessarily or avoid conversations about real life issues with young people. We can handle them. Trust us.

Definitely share these around with your family and friends!

If you have questions about this topic, feel free to contact one of our peer educators. [Link]
