Using the work of feminist care ethics and the thinking of French philosopher Henri Bergson to examine responses to school bullying and abuses faced by LGBT older adults, he provides the theoretical analysis and practical tools LGBT people and their allies need to make all spaces, public and private, spaces in which we can live openly as members of the LGBT community. With its combination of philosophical theory and on-the-ground activist experience, this text will be useful to anyone interested in philosophy, women?s and gender studies, psychology, aging, geriatrics, and LGBT activism. . 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aSocial service  606 $aCultural studies 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial Care$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33060 606 $aCultural Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040 606 $aGender Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35000 615 0$aSocial service . 615 0$aCultural studies. 615 0$aSociology. 615 14$aSocial Care. 615 24$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aGender Studies. 676 $a361 700 $aJohnston$b Tim R$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01063218 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253347903321 996 $aAffirmation, Care Ethics, and LGBT Identity$92531027 997 $aUNINA
