This guide is intended to be used in conjunction with the book WHEN YOU LOOK OUT THE WINDOW: HOW PHYLLIS LYON AND DEL MARTIN BUILT A COMMUNITY. Phyllis and Del were a lesbian couple whose activism changed San Francisco - and the nation. This guide is aligned with Common Core standards from K-5, and is a good resource for fulfilling California FAIR Education Act requirements. This is also a good resource for teachers who wish to incorporate women's history, LGBT history, and social justice themes
