V. RATIONALE:
With the LGBT community gaining in numbers each day, it is becoming increasingly necessary for LGBT education to be
taught in different platforms. Many countries still do not have an LGBT education class in their schools, and a few allow LGBT issues
to be taught in a negative manner or how the teacher feels is necessary, which is not always positive. However, LGBT education is a
necessity if we want youth to be accepting of their LGBT peers and for LGBT youth to be alive and healthy.
The inclusion of LGBT topics in teaching of history and social sciences are also advocated by topics in order to increase pride
and self-respect among LGBT students and reduce shame or self-pity for the lack of emphasis upon famous LGBT persons. Sex
education. With regards to the topic, it is somewhat important to acknowledge what it is like to be labeled as LGBT. Often people use
words that may relate to the LGBT community with a negative annotation. For example, phrases like "that's so gay" or "you are being
a faggot", suggest that being gay is a "bad" thing. The more we allow this kind of communication, it will only continue to be a
criticized expression. As we all know, social media is the best way to reach a wider audience which is why I chose my project to
create my own platform in social media to be able to educate other people regarding this matter.
I chose to implement this program since I am a part of the LGBT community myself. Three of the Louisian values I would want
to emphasize in this project is social involvement, creativeness and Christian spirit. Social involvement by spreading awareness about
a community I care about, creativeness by using social media, I will be creating my own content and own infographics in the website I
will be making, and lastly is Christian spirit, as a Christian I want to deepen my love for the Lord and as try to grow in knowledge of
Jesus and his way, loving all His creations no matter who they are and who they want to be as long as they are not harming anyone is
a way that I could live a life as a true Christian.
