    • Abstract:
      In our increasingly polarizing society, we have been inundated with news stories that perpetuate stereotypes of different generations and lament a great generational divide. But researchers and practitioners paint a very different--more optimistic--picture of multigenerational advocacy. For sexual and gender minorities (SGMs), multigenerational advocacy helps address lingering disparities and structural inequities. To be most effective, however, we must broaden our understanding of engagement across generations, expand our definition of advocacy, and call in SGM community members and allies for change.
