Queer Community

Join comedian and author ROSIE WILBY, co-founder of UK Black Pride LADY PHYLL and founder of Lesbian Visibility Week LINDA RILEY for a discussion on queer community. 


Are we still the ‘logical family’ that Armistead Maupin once wrote about? Or now that we are more conscious of the complex intersectional identities represented within the LGBTQ+ community, is it more difficult to represent everyone all of the time? As LGBTQ+ venues close down, is it a sign of progress or a concern that our safe spaces, not to mention our history, are disappearing?
