PRIDE : Gay's the Word
Update: 2023-06-23
Description
To celebrate London Pride 1st July, we share a tour through queer London history, anchoring at Gay’s the Word, a Bloomsbury book shop that has played a pivotal role in queer life and history.
We’ll think about…
- the systems that have oppressed,
- how oppression can stoke the spirit of activism,
- unusual alliances in times of struggle,
- how a bookstore can serve as beacon and safe harbor,
- a specific story of mutual support that is nearly impossible to believe, and
- the struggle for identity and the collective good.
