In this episode of Educating Barry, David and Barry dive into the impact of Section 28, a controversial law from the Local Government Act of 1988 that prohibited the promotion of homosexuality by local authorities. David, founder of Queer Education Consultancy, and his father, Barry, explore their personal experiences and perspectives on growing up and parenting during this time. They discuss how the law affected children and education, and reflect on how societal attitudes towards LGBTQ issues have evolved. The conversation also touches on current issues related to LGBTQ rights, including the complexities faced by modern schools and families. Join David and Barry for an honest and heartfelt discussion on understanding, acceptance, and the journey towards unconditional love.
