Transverbaloglossomorphosis (n.)

trans·​ver·​ba·​lo·​glos·​so·​mor·​pho·​sis \ ˌtranz-ˌvər-bə-lō-ˌgläs-ə-ˈmȯr-fə-səs \

1. The process or practice of converting spoken or signed language into another form, particularly in the context of media translations such as dubbing or subtitling.

2. The adaptation or transformation of a nonprint medium (e.g., film, television) to include accessible forms of communication for diverse audiences, including the deaf, hard of hearing, and those requiring language translation.

Usage: "The transverbaloglossomorphosis of the film ensured that audiences worldwide could appreciate the dialogue, whether through subtitles, dubbing, or sign language interpretation."

Etymology: From Latin trans (across) + verbum (word) + glossa (language, tongue) + morphosis (form, transformation).

It Gets Better Project

The It Gets Better Project began as a social media campaign. In 2010, over 70,000 LGBTQ+ people shared words of encouragement and support to their younger counterparts, with their central message being “it gets better.” It Gets Better is now a non-profit organization that seeks to empower and connect queer youth globally. On their website, they have a page of 60,000 videos created by LGBTQ+ adults sharing their stories. You can filter by specific identity (i.e. bisexual, lesbian, nonbinary), as well as by a few other parameters (i.e. celebrities, athletes, drag queens). The site provides additional resources for other relevant parties, like for educators looking to make their classroom more inclusive of LGBTQ+ students.

ALA Rainbow Book List

Every year, the American Library Association (ALA) publishes their Rainbow Book List, awarding exceptional LGBTQ+ books for children, tweens, and teens. The committee selects books to award based on the quality of literature and quality inclusion and representation of those on the queer spectrum. The ALA Rainbow Book List website is currently under construction, but the 2022 awardees can be found here. The Rainbow Book List committee can be found on Twitter here.

The Lesbrary

The Lesbrary is a website collecting information and reviews on the literature featuring lesbian and bisexual characters and stories. While this site primarily focuses on reviewing these books, they also share relevant literature/publishing news, recommend other sapphic book blogs, and curate recommendation lists. The books discussed on The Lesbrary belong to a wide variety of genres, but visitors can browse by genre or age range, rating, and desired representation.
