People of Pride: 25 Great LGBTQ Americans by Chase Clemesha
fast-paced
2.0
This book unfortunately is full of multiple problems. Like many other reviewers have mentioned, it deadnames a trans man and uses very outdated language by saying he was "born in a girl's body." I also don't agree with some of the choices in people displayed; it's like telling queer youth "You too can be a bully or class traitor." The design is also quite lacking. It would be much better if there were illustrations instead of photographs. I also feel like the language is much younger than the targeted audience. I truly wanted to like this book, but overall, I cannot recommend it.
