The Eleventh LGBTQ
History and Archives Conference7 December 2013, 9.30am-4.30pm
London Metropolitan Archives, 40, Northampton Road, London, EC1R 0HB
Call for Presentations / Performances
Due to much of LGBT
History being shaped around legal and political landmarks relating mainly to the
experiences of gay men, other queer voices often go unheard. The eleventh LGBT History and Archives Conference explores the
histories and experiences of Trans, Lesbian and Bisexual people. These stories
are rarely told and, if presented, often not listened to. Come and make some
history.
Contributors are invited to submit proposals for performances, presentations and talks lasting ten-twenty minutes, which explore marginalised experience within an apparently liberated community. Suggested themes: the creation, control and breaking of boundaries; self-asserted and imposed identities; labelling – the liberation and constraint of language; activism – meeting challenges
Deadline for submissions: 6 September 2013 email: ask.lma@cityoflondon.gov.uk
