Collective Resistance: Knowing Your Rights and Reflecting on Queer Protest
February 23 @ 1:30 pm - 4:30 pm
Free
In 1988, METRO (formerly the Greenwich Lesbian and Gay Centre – GLGC) was threatened by a local policeman during the hostile climate of Section 28.
In response, the GLGC marched in the Stop the Clause demonstration. This workshop is inspired by that moment in METRO’s history.
Come join METRO and Southwark Copwatch to learn about your rights while protesting and discuss different ways to take action.
Plus, create original illustrations with artist Lewis Danielski, which will feature in METRO’s upcoming exhibition Out From The Centre: 40 Years of LGBTQ+, Disability & HIV Activism, from 10-18 May 2025 at Mimosa House!
