Beim Lyrikvideo-Wettbewerb "Pride-Poesie" sind über zwei Dutzend wortgewaltige Kurzfilme mit sehr vielseitigen Gedichten über die Liebe und Lebensweisen von homo-, bi-, trans-, inter-, asexuell und genderqueeren Menschen entstanden.

Einige von ihnen sind bereits etabliert, manche bei deutschsprachigen Poetry-Slams unterwegs, andere wiederum Neuentdeckungen, doch viele von ihnen selbst queer, was den Eindruck, den "Pride-Poesie" hinterlässt, zutiefst authentisch macht. "Pride-Poesie" ist ein Gemeinschaftsprojekt von zwei gemeinnützigen Vereinen, die seit vielen Jahren queere Kunst und Kultur fördern: Neue Medien in Kooperation mit homochrom.

While much has been written about dyslexia and literacy, little has been written about dyslexia and counselling. Good counselling remediates problems in relationships. Good teaching remediates problems in literacy. When the principles of effective counselling combine with the principles of effective literacy teaching, then dyslexia becomes not only manageable but potent, a source of individual strength and wisdom. This book is designed to be a practical resource for busy counsellors and therapists working with dyslexic clients in the time-constrained world of modern therapy. It is also a reference for anyone who is interested in the counselling perspective on dyslexia: parents, teachers and anyone working in, for example primary care or the social services.
A story of fighting to belong in a world that wasn't built for all of us and of one woman's activism--from the streets of Brooklyn and San Francisco to inside the halls of Washington--Being Heumann recounts Judy Heumann's lifelong battle to achieve respect, acceptance, and inclusion in society. Paralyzed from polio at eighteen months, Judy Heumann began her struggle for equality early in life. From fighting to attend grade school after being described as a "fire hazard" to later winning a lawsuit against the New York City school system for denying her a teacher's license, to leading the section 504 sit-in that led to the creation of the Americans with Disabilities Act, Judy's actions set a precedent that fundamentally improved rights for disabled people around the globe. Candid, intimate, and irreverent, Judy Heumann's memoir about resistance to exclusion invites readers to imagine and make real a world in which we all belong.
