Description
Sarah Brown talks to Lord Michael Cashman CBE, Peter Tatchell and Julian Clary. There can be no talk of activism without acknowledgement and admiration of the LGBT movement and its many heroes. 50 years on from the partial decriminalisation of homosexuality in the UK this episode explores what can be learnt from the struggles, determination and strategies of LGBT campaigns in the UK where many calls for changes have been achieved, from rights to pensions to spousal protection, despite constant stigma and discrimination. This episode is packed full of lessons and ideas for activists who imagine a better world and want to do something about it.
