Nu McAdam (he/they) & Suchi Chatterjee (she/they) present to you ‘Your Lavender Life: Disability History, Activism & Intersectionality' at Daltons. 

At this event we will be talking about how important it is to archive personal queer and disabled histories in the local area. Recent years have taught us how much of our rights and autonomy is being taken away. In order to reverse this small steps can be keeping queer history safe.

Queer History South will be taking participants through how the online archive works with the support of community archivist Rowan Rush-Morgan.

This event will also feature a talk from Issac Samuel about disability justice, history and the future of community activism. Isaac Samuels OBE is a queer, disabled, brown social changemaker, speaker and activist working at the intersection of mental health, disability justice and racial equity. Drawing from lived experience and community organising, Isaac uses storytelling and co-production to challenge systems, amplify unheard voices, and reimagine what inclusion truly looks like. 

Community champions Nu McAdam and Suchi Chatterjee will also be talking about their own history as well as research into queer intersectional history.

This event will be run by Queer Heritage South and will have opportunities to archive your personal history as well as explaining the importance of archiving queer history. 

Queer Heritage South is a programme powered by Marlborough Production.
