An excellent resource that is as thorough as it is visually appealing." --<i>School Library Journal</i>, starred review</b> <p/> Like the original version, this new edition of <i>Pride: The Celebration and the Struggle</i> celebrates the LGBTQ+ community's diversity and the incredible victories of the past 50 years--but it also has a larger focus on activism, the need to keep fighting for equality and freedom around the world and the important role that young people are playing. The new edition has been <strong>updated</strong> and <strong>expanded</strong> to include many new Proud Moments and Queer Facts as well as a profile of LGBTQ+ refugees from Indonesia, a story about a Pride celebration in a refugee camp in Kenya and profiles of young activists, including teens from a Gender and Sexuality Alliance organizing Pride in Inuvik and a trans girl from Vancouver fighting for inclusion and support in schools. There is also a section on being an ally, a profile of a family with two gay dads (one of them trans) and much, much more! <p/> Praise for the first edition, <i>Pride: Celebrating Diversity & Community</i> <p/> "LGBTQ culture and rights are covered through the prism of Pride in this timely work...This attractive work will be welcomed by readers searching for guidance and hope."--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/> "Informative...Positively festive in its attitudes and outlook, this book more than lives up to the word celebrating in its subtitle."--<i>Booklist</i> <p/> "Upbeat and matter-of-fact...These stories, sad and happy, are where vulnerable preteen kids may see themselves."--<i>Quill & Quire</i> <p/> "An excellent and necessary addition for all collections."--<i>School Library Journal</i><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>★ "An indispensable and celebratory primer on the ongoing fight for LGBTQ+ rights.
