We Are Revolting! 40 Years of Queer Activism

Today I went to the 'We Are Revolting! 40 Years of Queer Activism' organised by LAGNA - Lesbian and Gay Newsmedia Archive. It was located at Bishopsgate.

I was delighted to see and speak to Robert Thompson -  Chair of the LAGNA committee. Robert told me that he remembers me and my son visiting LAGNA, years ago, when it was based in the Middlesex.  University.
