Some queer educators teach as co-learners rather than as identity-based role models.
Evidence
Unlike the “knitters,” out critical educators strive toward intersectional approaches and do not view themselves as role models for a particular identity-based group of students, but as teacher-students actively naming and challenging dominant discourse through embodied political acts and ways of being alongside young people whose voices are often silenced in schools and society. — James D. Kirylo (ed.), Reinventing Pedagogy of the Oppressed, 1263
