She was deaf and blind nobody said “she was disabled, too” (and certainly didn’t mention that she was a socialist and birth control advocate). When it did, that was it: “he had polio.” Same with Helen Keller. And even then, the fact that he had polio almost never came up. The first disabled person I remember learning about in school was FDR. Even Mother Jones touted the curriculum as specifically “LGBT-inclusive.” All of which is fine, I guess? But it’s also not surprising. The LA Times left it for the final sentence. But most of the coverage I’ve read barely acknowledges another addition to the redesign: disability history. The Board of Education’s unanimous decision made a big splash last week. Who knows how much time I could have saved by learning about queer people in class? I’m thrilled that the anxious baby gays of tomorrow won’t have to build a knowledge base from scratch. Even in an incredibly progressive family, nobody explained that some people are gay (a function of my parents legitimately not seeing it as a big enough deal to mention).

Personally, I’m all for that revamp-I’ve long said that the scariest part of coming out, for me, was not having language to describe what was happening. My beloved home/current/forever (?) state of California recently voted to include more LGBT people and narratives in its public school curriculum.
