Queer History Trivia with Clare McCarthy

Queer History Trivia with Clare McCarthy In-Person

Queer History Trivia is a set of six 20-question Kahoots covering the emergence of the queer rights movement in the 1970s through the 2010s. Each round is specific to one decade (with one catch-all pre-1970s game). Attendees can expect a lively competition and lots of indirect learning. QHT is perfect for groups of mixed age ranges. No registration required, but a phone or device is required to participate in the Kahoots. Devices may be shared! Trivia is appropriate for all ages in grades 6-12 and adults. Grades 6-12 students can come alone, with friends, or with a caregiver/support person and adults can come alone or accompanied by their grade 6-12 students!

Clare McCarthy is an educator, transgender advocate, author, and producer/host of Transqat the Podcast. Transqat the Podcast is a safe space for respectful conversations about transgender issues. It’s a place for queer people to tell their stories. Each episode is a long-form conversation. Clare’s guests have included medical, legal, and mental health experts; faith leaders; artists; creators; parents; and queer youth. A former Latin teacher of 33 years, Clare has long practice presenting complex, unfamiliar material in an accessible way. Her presentations and trainings are rooted in honesty, humor, research, and lived experience.
