About this deal

For lots of people in the book (the ones at the top of my head are Mark Ashton and Mike Jackson from LGSM) wit, satire and self-deprecation have always been a tool for survivors. This is a queer look at London with a Capital Q and is by turns intimate, gossipy, personal and political. Emerging from the Stonewall Uprisings in New York in 1969 it wasn’t long before they catalysed a movement here in Britain that lead to Pride today, but not as we know it.

Share Alan Johnson in Conversation with Derek Laud:From Postman to Home Secretary with your friends. It is helpful, however, to question everything if you think that an injustice to one is an injustice to all. I was also aware that a lot of the people who I’m really inspired by are getting old and I wanted to record their stories. Every page is packed with inspiring, moving and downright hilarious secrets just itching to be uncovered, and with the riotously entertaining Dan Glass as your mincing tour guide, you’ll have an absolute blast as you do. From time to time there are changes to event details so we strongly recommend checking back on this listing on the day of the event if you plan to attend.

It’s very reparative and healing to be connected on a physical, psychological and spiritual level with our queer community through the generations. Popular education says we are authors of our own reality; we just don’t ever really get to tell our own stories. A truly rewarding read, full of insights and knowledge and intertwined with anecdotes from those who were there. Glass: I’m squirreling away on writing a new book: Queer Footprints: A Guide to Uncovering London’s Fierce History. Their films, advocacy, community building, media work and so much more with ACT UP Dublin and others who are continuing to kick butt against pharmaceutical greed and government inaction.

Dan Glass, author of Queer Footprints: A Guide to Uncovering London’s Fierce History, is here to guide you. Protest movement; queer, black joy from Candy Bar and ‘black and gay back in the day’ and lessons from Dean Street wellbeing services which advanced sexual healthcare across London.

It’s not the 1950s waiting for the The Wolfenden Report to be released to tell the world that, shock horror, we homosexuals ‘cannot legitimately be regarded as a disease’.We’re all impacted by the same dominator culture of patriarchal, sexist, homophobic, racist, ableist violence – we’re all affected within that framework, so we all have to work together on the ground.
