It’s Black History Month! Join us in celebrating the incredible contributions of Black people and Black LGBTQ+ people.

#BlackHistoryMonth #ProudToBe
Black people have always been at the centre of the LGBTQ+ liberation movement, from Marsha P. Johnson and Stormé DeLarverie, who were major figures in the Stonewall uprisings of 1969, to modern day LGBTQ+ leaders like Munroe Bergdorf and Lady Phyll.
This year’s Black History Month theme is #ProudToBe. We aim to highlight the incredible contributions that Black LGBTQ+ people and Black LGBTQ-led organisations are making throughout the UK, as well as sharing the richness of queer Black activism.
