Dakota L. Morrison is currently a Junior at Bowling Green State University majoring in AYA Integrated Social Studies Education, with minors in both History and Popular Culture. Coming out in 2014 at his small, rural high school outside of Mt. Blanchard, Ohio, Morrison saw the levels of discrimination and ignorance regarding LGBTQ+ topics and identities which led to his current studies regarding the queer experience including the effects of homonormativity on greater society and the impact the queer community and punk scene have had on one another’s development over the past 4 decades. |
Dakota's presentation to the WCCOA explains: the difference between sex and gender, common gender identities such as “transgender”, “nonbinary”, “agender” and other gender identities, common sexualities such as lesbian, gay, bisexual, pansexual and other sexual identities, and romantic attraction. Along with the defining of common LGBTQ+ identities, the presentation provides the answers to common questions you might have about the community such as: “What words am I not supposed to use?” “What do I say when someone comes out to me?” “What’s all this about pronouns?” “What issues do LGBTQ+ people still have today?” Learn to understand, accept, and love the queer people in your life!
