Urcashi Vaid Presentation

1) I have been to a couple LGBT movements before so I somewhat expected how it would go. I actually do know quite a bit on this topic because of my few family members who are gay or lesbian and because of my few friends who are gay or lesbian. Yet I still learned more than I learned more than I knew before coming to this presentation. 2) It was very informative and presented in a very respectful yet affirmative and even funny matter. She has very good point and views on everything she was talking about. I do and have almost alwas have had the same opinions as her. 3) I didnt know how bad the LGBT suicide/ attempted suicide rate was. It's very sad and scary to think that people are pushing and bullying this group of people so far off of the edge. 4) Yes! she is a lesbian, has been fighting for thirty years for the LGBT movement and has wrote a few books on the topic. she is most definitely an authority on the topic. 5) Everything she's brought up is something I can use in my paper. She was very informative and will be a huge inspiration for my paper!

  1. I am glad to hear that the presentation will be helpful for your paper, Briggette. Are you focusing your Alternative Viewpoints paper on suicide, marriage, or bullying? Remember that it must address ONE of these topics.
