Hmmmmm....that sounds like a good idea, actually. Although some of their parents would NEVER go for it - since she's started at an audition-in arts charter, she's found more community but also way more parents who are totally unaware of who their kids actually ARE. Our homeschooling friends are usually pretty liberal families that encourage their kids to be just as autistic or obsessed with cosplay or determined to save the bees as they wanna be. Often practicing pagan and/or in illegal food cults for raw milk, etc. So she's got the outcast queer kids with mainstream parents in school with her now, and it's so different. Her school bff was grounded to the point of extreme isolation and threatened with being pulled from the school when her parents realized she had a girlfriend. They don't like Ananda just on suspicion (shaved hair AND roller derby O_O *gasp*). She's already teaching everyone at school what things like "pansexual" and "gender fluid" mean, because nobody else knew.
She's spending most of the summer with her homeschooled friends, who she's seen little these past few months. They're all older and uber-political, very tumblr-educated, constantly teaching her historical and policy things. Mia and Izzy could probably design the course you're talking about. But they'd rather watch cartoons and raid the fridge, when they're here to spend the night.
We should at least put together a tumblr post and send it off into the ether, with links and things for the stuff you're talking about. Because I think a LOT of young LGBT and allies are in a similar marriage-apathetic, dismantle-the-catpitalist-patriarchy place. And Annie at least would sit down with me to watch some films...
