This interview-based essay explores how a teacher-training program, while ostensibly dedicated to the idea of teaching for social justice, completely neglected issues of homophobia and heterosexism. How did silence around queer issues leave a dedicated group of young, queer teachers-in-training without the academic, intellectual, or psychological support? Without this support, how did these teachers establish for themselves what it means to be a queer teacher and how did they navigate combating homophobia (both on the individual and institutional levels), come out to students and colleagues and serve as a role model and advocate for queer or questioning students
