Lee Wind

    Lee Wind creëert verhalen, geïnspireerd door de vaak onvertelde geschiedenis van de LGBTQ+-gemeenschap, waarbij belangrijke en krachtige verhalen aan het licht komen. Als oprichter van een populaire website gericht op boeken, cultuur en empowerment voor LGBTQ+-jongeren en hun bondgenoten, toont hij een diepe toewijding aan het versterken van diverse stemmen. Zijn schrijven wordt gevoed door een passie om het rijke tapijt van LGBTQ+-ervaringen te ontdekken en te delen. Zijn debuutroman markeert zijn belangrijke bijdrage aan de literatuur, voortbouwend op deze boeiende historische draden.

Not even his best friend (and accidental girlfriend) Mackenzie.Then he discovers a secret from actual Abraham Lincoln was in love with another guy!

So Wyatt outs Lincoln online, triggering a media firestorm and conservative backlash that threaten to destroy everything he cares about.Now Wyatt has to pretend more than ever that he's straight (because no one will believe a gay kid saying Lincoln was gay). Only then he meets Martin, who is openly gay and who just might be the guy Wyatt's been hoping to find. Will Wyatt stay closeted to change the world, or will he let Abraham Lincoln's gay romance fade back into history and take his own chance at love?This nineteenth- and twenty-first-century coming-of-age, coming out story was inspired by real historical evidence that Abraham Lincoln was in love―romantic love―with another man. QUEER AS A FIVE-DOLLAR BILL asks LGBTQ teens (and everyone else), What if you knew a secret from history that could change the world?

      Ein Weihnachtswunder | Ein Bilderbuch gegen den Antisemitismus

      Ein Bilderbuch gegen den Antisemitismus. Simon hilft bei den Vorbereitungen für das Lichterfest und Teresa schmückt mit ihren Eltern den Weihnachtsbaum. Sie sind Nachbarn und beste Freunde. Gemeinsam zählen sie die Tage bis zum großen Fest, spielen im Schnee, backen Plätzchen. Sie teilen ihre Freude an den gleichen Dingen, erfreuen sich aber auch an dem, was sie unterscheidet. Abends erstrahlen ihre Fenster im festlichen Licht. Da fliegt ein Stein, Scherben fallen zu Boden, die Kerzen der Chanukkia verlöschen. Die Polizei kommt. Offensichtlich gibt es Menschen, die Anderssein nicht akzeptieren. Simon will die Lichter wieder anzünden, sie sollen sich als Juden nicht verstecken. Entschlossen malt Teresa den Leuchter mit den neun Kerzen auf ein Blatt Papier. Für Simon! Und hängt dieses Bild in ihr Fenster. Tausende machen es ihr nach. Eine wahre Geschichte von respektvollem Miteinander, von Liebe und Solidarität.
