Time to try #tooting #toots of some #library #archive #history work. #UK #britishlibrary
Check out the #digitised #manuscript of Una Marson’s play ‘A What A Price’. Building on Professor Kate Dossett’s #research into #Black British playwrights in the early 20th century.

Considering the last 24 hours, I have no time for those dismissing #LGBTQ prejudice and oppression as relative. Once again the queer community has been attacked and we have no time for your hot-takes on moral equivalence, be an #ally. Stand up for LGBTQ+ rights. Don’t dismiss the struggle when people are dying.

Here are a few examples:
