Framing the Gay Rights MovementIn this exercise, you will apply the idea of framing to slogans associated with the gay rights movement over the past several decades.Go online and find images from the gay rights movement (1970s to current). Look for images of signs, buttons, and T-shirts that activists use to advocate for equality. If you are not working on your computer in class, print at least three of these images and bring them to class. Working with a group of other students, compare framing in early slogans like "Come out," "We're here, we're queer, get used to it," and "queer pride," with more recent slogans like "love is love," and "freedom to marry," and "love makes a family."What do these changing frames tell you about shifts in the strategy of the gay rights movement?
