Teach Your Children Well Filming Locations

Few contemporary social issues generate as much passion, misunderstanding and resistance as homosexuality. Deeply held homophobic beliefs, passed on from one generation to the next, pose ongoing challenges to the peaceful coexistence of today's young people. This is especially problematic in our schools when it comes to the treatment of LGBT students by their straight-identifying peers, and by the adults who teach, counsel and supervise them. Teach Your Children Well focuses on the issues of homophobia, bullying and school violence as told by students, teachers, activists and allies of the LGBT community. The film exposes the effects of homophobia in our schools and encourages acceptance and respect for the right of others to be and express who they are. Ongoing instances of homophobic-related violence and suicides tragically highlight the importance of reshaping the long-standing, outdated beliefs about homosexuality and those who identify as LGBT.
