If you're a kid like Gavin : the true story of a young trans activist / by Grimm, Gavin,author.; Lukoff, Kyle,author.(CARDINAL)679292; Yang, J,illustrator.;
When you're a kid like Gavin Grimm, you know yourself best. And Gavin knew that he was a boy -- even if others saw him as a girl. But when his school took away his right to something as simple as using the boys' restroom, Gavin knew he had a big decision to make. Because there are always more choices than the ones others give you. Gavin chose to correct others when they got his pronouns wrong. He asked to be respected. He stood up for himself. Gavin proved that his school had violated his constitutional rights and had the Supreme Court uphold his case -- bringing about a historic win for trans rights. There are many kids out there, some just like Gavin Grimm, and they might even be you. What choices will you make?Ages: 4-8.Grades: PreS-3.Notable Social Studies Trade Books for Young People, 2023

Nevertheless, we persisted : 48 voices of defiance, strength, and courage /
A powerful collection of essays from actors, activists, athletes, politicians, musicians, writers, and teens, each writing about a time in their youth when they were held back because of their race, gender, or sexual identity-- but persisted. Among others: actress Alia Shawkat was told she was too "ethnic" for parts. Former NFL player Wade Davis bullied other gay classmates in an attempt to hide his own sexuality. Holocaust survivor Fanny Starr tells of her harrowing time in Auschwitz, where she watched her family disappear, one by one. They tell how they rose through the hate, overcoming the obstacles of their childhood to the hard-won lives they live today.1010L
