S4, E5: LGBT+ Research

This week we are joined by Professor Catherine Lee (MBE) (she/her) and Dr Ben Johnson (he/him) to discuss the topic of LGBT+ Research. Ben and Catherine are both former teachers and now academics who research a variety of LGBT+ topics including panoptic heteronormativity, Section 28 and its impact, and LGBT+ teacher professional identity. In this fascinating conversation, we discuss the importance of LGBT+ research, what the latest census tells us, the emancipatory potential of research, the academics that inspired us, and so much more.
